Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Toolkit :: Form Manager, defect)

Description

[Andy Wallace]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20031025
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.5b) Gecko/20031025

I didn't have this problem using mozilla 1.4b.  But I decided to upgrade
and try 1.5b.  The build went fine and I'm using 1.5b now to complete this
bug report.  Go figure...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open location http://www.blackborder.com/
2. Try to type in one of the cgi form text boxes.
3. Click on any link in the main page, then use back arrow.
4. Total lock up of mozilla 1.5b!
5. kill mozilla client process
6. exit window manager (blackbox)
7. startx
8. Don't visit that site again

Actual Results:  
See above.

Expected Results:  
Beats me.  Maybe that website has some kind of screwed up
flash or scripts.  You can view this site fine in netscape 4 and up
or Iexplorer 5 and up.

Why not 1.5 final?  Testing that instead of a beta would be a good start... ;)

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
