User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030529
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030529

Mozilla crashes as soon as it attempts to load
http://fas-digiclass.rutgers.edu/global/takequiz.jsp?page=/spanish/511tarea8.quiz&dept=spanish

This page may disappear soon (it is very bad html and needs fixing) but I can
create a copy of it, and will place that URL here if that happens.

I was able to crash both this build of Mozilla and an earlier 1.4b+ build (I
think it was 20030522)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to
http://fas-digiclass.rutgers.edu/global/takequiz.jsp?page=/spanish/511tarea8.quiz&dept=spanish

Actual Results:  
Crash. No talkback. 


Yes I know that page is awful html. Each form element has the same name. There
is a <head> in the middle of the document. etc. etc. But it should not kill Mozilla.
Attached file Crash log
This crash log is a good one. Infinite loop maybe? I never saw Thread 0 get
into the 500s before, but then I don't know how to read these things.
Just in case the page gets changed at that URL, here is the same page in a more
permanent location:

http://fas-digiclass.rutgers.edu/draft/511tarea8.html

It also crashes Mozilla when read from a local file. 

It does *not* crash Mozilla on WinXP (I tried build 2003051508 and version 1.3,
they are not my computers so I can't go for something more recent)
Confirmed in build 2003052908 on Mac OS X 10.2.6 I have the same crashlog, also
in js_EmitTree(). No Talkback-report.

I saw the same bug yesterday on a Slashdot-page, which I can't repeat anymore
(might be caused by an add, or by a particular combination of HTML-code).
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
WorksForMe using FizzillaMach/2003-05-29-08-trunk. Joseph, can you reproduce
this crash using another Mozilla user profile?

(Blocking bug 201894 per comment 0.)
Blocks: 201894
Keywords: crash
Summary: Crash on loading page → Crash on loading page [@ js_EmitTree]
On an entirely different Mac (same version of MOSX - 10.2.6) that page loads
fine, again using builds 2003052208 and 2003052908. 

I'll try a new profile on the original machine when I get back to my office
tomorrow. 
It's not the profile, it's the theme.

Back on the original Mac, this crashes with new and old profiles if I use Modern
or Orbit3+1 themes, but loads the page fine with the Classic and Pinstripe
themes (both use native widgets). 

Since this page has 50-odd textareas and that is the only appreciable difference
from other pages I was working with yesterday, perhaps the problem is somewhere
in the handling of non-native form elements?

Reproduced using FizzillaMach/2003-05-29-08-trunk and the Modern theme.

Also reproduced using 1.4 RC1 (FizzillaMach/2003-05-29-05-1.4). Nominating

I've noticed this bug is a problem on OS X using any theme... I'm using
1.4rc2... this bug is especially apparent when attempting to moderate on
Slashdot... I get a very consistent crash (using any theme but classic) and hang
using the classic theme.
Tested moderating slashdot... bug seems to be fixed on 1.4rc3... good work.

mozilla1.4 shipped. unsetting blocking1.4 request.

Hey guys... I still get a very very reproducible crash w/o TalkBack every time I
moderate on Slashdot. I have taken to just launching 1.3...
WFM in 20040314.
Yup, seems to have gone away.

WFM using Mozilla 1.6 (20040113)
