I can't reproduce this issue when opening the url specify using the Open Web
Location command. The frameset loads in the composer window for me. Tested under
Win32 2003-02-11-08, Mach-O 2003-02-12-03, and Linux 2003-02-12-10 trunk build.

With 1.3b it doesn't freeze - but it doesn't give me anything I can edit. It
just shows the frameset - hitting html source doesn't get it to show the html
source. I would have thought that going into composer (which cannot edit frames
as far as I know) should display the noframes portion of the page and allow the
html to be edited.

Yea, you might want add some comments to
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14156 which mentions about adding
the ability to edit framesets in Composer.

Marking WFM since I can't reproduce the crash.
