When viewing the page http://web01.i-iml.com/maidinmanhattan?ito=3225&itc0 (By
clicking on a link) the browser crashes immediately.
I've also saved the page from the link and even loading the file causes the
crash. Here's the page as is...
<html>
<head>
<title>Teletext Holidays - Maid in Manhattan </title>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function hiddenpopup()
{
window.open('index.jsp','maidinmanhattan','width=700,height=647,top=20,left=150,scrollbars=1');
page = window.self;
page.opener = window.self;
page.close();
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="hiddenpopup();">
</body>
</html>
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to page (or load file)
Actual Results:
Browser crashes
Expected Results:
Page should be displayed
The above link is a competition and so may be time sensitive and could disappear
after a while, so it may be better to use the given source code.

Disable 'popup blocking' pref as the site opens a popup and closes the main
window, you'll never see the new window created if you block popups.

I see now that indeed the browser isn't crashing - but should a main window be
able to close itself, especially given the appearance of crashing?
Not only that but I've disabled in the preferences everything scripts are
normally allowed to do - there's no preference for 'stop scripts closing main
window' - but all the others are disabled.
I still consider this a flaw ...
1. It gives the appearance of crashing. (Since I've disabled the popup beep)
2. I've disabled scripts from doing stuff and this is *still* allowed.
3. It's counter-intuitive that I have to re-enable popups to stop me from losing
the browser window, unless there are multiple tabs open (only tested that now).
Because of this I guess it should be reopened as an enhancement - it needs
some kind of notification to the user or the closing of the main window should
NOT happen. (So I'm reopening it)
Severity: critical → enhancement
Status: RESOLVED → UNCONFIRMED
Resolution: INVALID → ---
