213757 - crash loading non-existent domain/file with XUL error pages enabled

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 213912

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[Jeremy M. Dolan]

Mozilla silently (no talkback anymore?) crashes when loading a crazy domain name.

1) start Mozilla, have one tab open to about:blank.
2) enter "hnsdgdssfs" in the URL bar and hit ctrl+shift+enter
3) Mozilla tries to load www.hnsdgdssfs.net, can't, and blows up

May be related to last nights check-in for Bug 192729.

OK, it's as simple as entering "asdsadas.com" <enter> into the address bar it
seems. Note I have: user_pref("browser.xul.error_pages.enabled", true);

Comment 2

[Jeremy M. Dolan]

also crashes loading a nonexistent local file by typing in a file:// URL.

Dupping to but with stack trace and assigned to the right person.
