(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Thamer Mahmoud]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020721
BuildID:    2002072104

A web page that starts with a closed html tag "</html>" causes a crash in
mozilla but renders fine under IE6. 

The front page of http://www.planetemu.net is an example of this bug being “In
the wild”. I’m also including a simple testcase to demonstrate this problem.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1- Click on link or testcase.
2- Crash!


Actual Results:  mozilla crashed loosing many opened tabs and browser windows.

Expected Results:  mozilla should never crash and page render normally.
