I have not had crashes for some time in Mozilla under OS X on an iBook until RC2
and now I get about a crash a day. I have not been able to see any common
denominator in the URLs that crash the browser. Above is a URL at a news site
that crashes Mozilla RC2 under OS X on an iBook. Other "articles" at the same
site do not crash the browser, this URL does not crash Omniweb, nor does it
crash Netscape 6.2 on an iMac under Mac OS 9.4

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.open http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/astronomy/brown_dwarfs_020522.html
using RC2 under OS X on an iBook




Actual Results:  Mozilla "unexpectedly quits"

Expected Results:  page loads

do you get any stack trace for this crash ?
Do you have any Flash plug-in installed ?

Comment 2

[Robin Colgrove]

I have installed nothing beyond what was in the RC2 "disk image".
I do not know where to look for a stack-trace, but would be happy to post this is someone tells me.

I don't know much about MacOSX, sorry, I thought when crashing, Mozilla would
generate something in the console (?).

Please create a OS X crash log and attach it (via "create new attachment" link)
to this bug.

Under OS X, you can enable CrashReporter to provide this data. See
[http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1057.html].

Just got RC3. The space.com articles that crashed rc2 on an ibook under OS X now work fine.
