135627 - Null pointer exception with XHTML optgroup

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect)

Description

[carnold]

Mozilla 0.9.9 (and apparently later though I haven't been able to get the 4/03 
nightly to run reliably) will crash when running the following exercise 
involving the HTMLOptGroupElement interface and XHTML.  NN 6.2 successfully 
completes the test.

1. Unzip attached file
2. Download JSUnit 1.2.7 from http://jsunit.sourceforge.net
3. Unzip jsunit
4. Load jsunit/testRunner.html
5. Browse to HTMLOptGroupElement01.html from first zip
6. Press Run
7. If fixed, bar should be green.  If broken, Mozilla will have crashed.

Don't crash with linux 2002040410. The progress bar doesn't show anything
either. It just seems to do nothing at all.

All I get is Status:
Opening Test Page
"file:////home/john/public_html/jsunit/tests/html1/HTMLOptGroupElement01.html"

Nothing else on the page changes.

This is me, if it happens still.

Sorry, I thought that I had tested this with the current release of JSUnit 
(1.2.7), but when I check it now I get the same "no-op" behavior that was 
reported.

I am able to generate the crash with build 2002040314 the using a branched 
version of JSUnit 1.2.6 that is available in the DOM L1 Core test suite 
available at http://www.w3.org/DOM/Test/Downloads/DOMTSL1Core-20020213.zip

Download and expand that file and then launch ecmascript/testRunner.html and 
then do steps 5 and on.
