User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

start at http://www.weather.com/outlook/homeandgarden/local/03057 and then click
on "Averages and Records" to get to the link I pasted in above.  mozilla will
crash every time.  I saved this page from IE in case the content changes.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to http://www.weather.com/outlook/homeandgarden/local/03057
2.click on "Averages and Records"
3.http://www.weather.com/outlook/homeandgarden/climatology/monthly/03057 causes
mozilla to crash

Actual Results:  
mozilla was gone

Expected Results:  
displayed the page

I consider this critical not because the weather page is important, but because
other windows could contain important apps that disappear when mozilla crashes

if using MacOSX 10.2, make sure to use 1.2a latest nightly build as there's a
known Java crasher: bug 154699.

I downloaded 1.2b but it seems to have the same identifier: Mozilla/5.0
(Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826 - is this correct?

The problem still exists when I run this new mozilla.

Comment 6

[Chris Petersen]

Hmmm. Using a nightly build (2002-10-23-08) under 10.2.1, the applet intializes
and displays properly on the url specified. 

Comment 7

[Chris Petersen]

Actually, Mozilla 1.2b should give you the following identifier:

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016
