WFM using 
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030206 Phoenix/0.5
and Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20021207 Phoenix/0.5
I know it may be annoying - but did you check with the latest version of phoenix
using a fresh profile?

[Nichlas Löfdahl]

Yep, I've tried with a complete fresh profile and phoenix 0.5. Still same 
result (lockup/freeze)

Comment 3

Ok, an important thing fell out in the example... font-size:

Try this one:

<table width=100>
    <tr>
        <td><div style="font-size: 12px; 
overflow:auto">wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww</div></t
d>
    </tr>
</table>

Nichlas, Phoenix 0.5 is only the latest milestone release of Phoenix, not the
latest build. Please try with the latest nightly build:
http://komodo.mozilla.org/pub/phoenix/nightly/latest-trunk/

[Nichlas Löfdahl]

Ok, I've tried with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3b) 
Gecko/20030207 Phoenix/0.5.

Still the same problem.

Ok - I've tried your sample with the modified font-size and it still WFM now using
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20030207 Phoenix/0.5

Nichlas: did you install the latest nightly build in a _new_ directory?
Perhaps someone else can give it a try with WinXP!

Comment 7

[Nichlas Löfdahl]

Yep, I installed it in a new directory... The problems occurs when you get 
overflow and a bottom scrollbar should appear. If this scrollbar fills the 
whole td-cell, phoenix ends up in a loop.

Using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3b) Gecko/20030211
Phoenix/0.5 I get a definite slow down accessing the test page, and Phoenix
displays nothing. I eventually just closed the tab it was in due to the
performance degredation on the rest of the browser. Also interesing is that the
test page is tentatively valid (if you were to add the 4.01 transitional etc
stuff it would validate). It's also freezing/locking up Mozilla.

Over to Browser: Layout: Tables

I see a performance degredtion on Linux 7.3 .... trunk build 2003-02-17-05
and MacOS X ..... trunk build 2003-02-19-03

the testcase displays fine on the winXP platform.
confirming bug.

this is infinite reflow

dupe of "overflow:auto applied to option creates an infinite loop"
(both regressed between 09/29/2002 - 10/01/2002)
