Works fine for me.

Is this with Galeon (as your User-Agent shows) or mozilla ?
What version of mozilla ?

Please provide a stacktrace

Happens in Mozilla as well as Galeon.  I'm using Mozilla 1.5, and here's the
backtrace:

Comment 3

[Malcolm Rowe]

Stacktrace makes this look like a duplicate of bug 205492. Reporter, can you 
reproduce this using current nightly builds of 1.6? (not 1.6b).

Comment 4

[Rene Pronk]

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7a) Gecko/20040111

No problem here.

Comment 5

[James Ogley]

Tried current nightly, and it worked fine.  Given that the nightly is GTK1, is
this a GTK2 bug (from looking at 205492)?

Comment 6

[Malcolm Rowe]

The crash on bug 205492 is gtk2-only, by the looks of things. Can someone try a 
current gtk2 build against this bug's URL to see if they are the same problem?

Comment 7

[Mitch]

I've tried it with a gtk2 build from todays cvs and it works just fine.
Both Solaris and Linux.

Comment 8

[Mitch]

Given that the fix for bug 205492 was integrated on 12th Dec, and it
looks from reporter's user-agent that he was running an older build, 
i assume that this is fixed and that's why a newer build worked for him.

Closing as duplicate per comment 7.
