131499 - Page fails to render, URL does not appear in history

Status: CLOSED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Joe Claffey]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.79 (Macintosh; U; PPC)
BuildID:    2002031106

I find many sites that Mozilla will not render. When it fails to render a page, 
it does not place the URL in the history. On some sites, it will process some 
internal URLs but not others. If I open a problem URL with Navigator 4.79 and 
save the source, Mozilla can open and render the source properly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Attempt to open http://www.mozilla.org
2.
3.

Actual Results:  Mozilla displayed a "Document: Done (0.309 secs)" message but 
failed to render anything.

Expected Results:  Mozilla should have displayed the page.

WFM in the March 19th build (2002-03-19-08) under Mac OS 9.1. Reporter, could
you try with a newer build ?

I tried the latest daily. Unfortunately, it crashed before getting off the splash 
screen, so I don't know if this bug is fixed or not. I'll keep trying.

FWIW, I'm running System 8.6 on a 7200 clone with an upgraded processor. I know 
there are some issues involving G3-upgraded NuBus machines, do they extend to the 
PCI ones as well?

There is a blocker bug that prevents this bug from being verified at the moment:

Reporter,

Please try with a newer build now that Bug 132370 is fixed.

URLs are now being resolved, and appearing in the history. I still have assorted 
rendering problems, but I think this bug is done.
