Details

There is an apparent Javascript error at the above URL, and it hangs the M9
browser window.  Using the M9 release and choosing a country and vehicle, the JS
error freezes the client area of the browser; Apprunner as a whole remains
alive, as does the chrome, and a new, working window can be launched from the
menu bar.  The bug is that the initial rendering window refuses to repaint, or
do anything, until the program finally exits.

Observed 8/27/1999 on a 486-DX4 (100MHz) running Win95b.

John, can you take a look at this?

Component: Javascript Engine → DOM Level 0
I could not reproduce this.

In any case, this sounds like a JS embedding problem and not an engine problem.

Flinging this at the DOM folk

layout issue, not core js

I can't reproduce this with a modern apprunner.  Please reopen with a minimal
test case if you still see this bug.
