User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030526 Mozilla Firebird/0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030526 Mozilla Firebird/0.6

When you use the auto search feature of php.net to look up a function definition...
http://www.php.net/preg_replace

The page redirects and eventually loads the page with the definition on it.  The
title displays in the browser window's title bar, but before the page finished
loading, firebird crashes.  I don't know if it is the redirects, or something on
the page itself.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.php.net/preg_replace
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Browser window dissappeared.

Expected Results:  
Displayed the page

Rob, this works fine for me using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US;
rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030619 Mozilla Firebird/0.6

Since you're using a very old build I'd kindly ask you to download latest
nightly from http://komodo.mozilla.org/pub/firebird/nightly/latest-trunk/ and to
install it into a _new_ directory. By calling MozillaFirebird with option "-p"
you should create an additional new profile and finally come back with any
information you get!
Note: your original settings and bookmarks won't get lost by creating a new profile!

You're right.  A newer build doesn't seem to crash on that page.  Thanks.

Resolving WFM per comment #2.

Rob, please feel free to re-open this bug report if problem re-occurs, but
please always re-test your problems with latest nightly build and vanilla
profile before (re-)opening any bug report - thanks a lot for doing so!
