If you click on the pulldown menu inside phpMyADMIN application (a web interface
for mysql), Mozilla crashes. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use an installation of phpMyADMIN (this is mostly internal used, so I can not
give you a public URL for this)
2. on the startup page, a list of available databases ist shown on the left frame
3. click on the pulldown window.

Actual Results:  
Browser crashes. See talkback issue TB19642238E

Expected Results:  
Pulldown is shown

This is a persistent issue for the nigthlies since 1 or 2 weeks. I would think
is has to to with the "this.form.submit()" event. See page code enclosed.

Attachment: page code - html output

Code for navigation page with  <select name="lightm_db"
onchange="this.form.submit()"> section which may be the reason for the crash.
See www.phpmyadmin.net for more details.

This is the original php code from which the html output is generated

As of build 20030502, this seems to be fixed now. But I still see a crash on a
js-enhanced page. Will file that separately ...
