Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 206259

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect)

Description

[John Sanders]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040927 MultiZilla/1.6.4.0b
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040927 MultiZilla/1.6.4.0b

When I try to print the page:
http://www.gamespot.com/index.html?tag=gs_head_home Mozilla stops respoding and
cpu utilization goes straight to 99%, I did spend about 10 minutes waiting
before having to kill mozilla.

It happened to me before on other pages, but I started to notice that on
Gamespot.com it always happens no matter what.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just open Mozilla
2. Go to http://www.gamespot.com/index.html?tag=gs_head_home
3. Click on menu: File -> Print Preview

Actual Results:  
CPU utilization of Mozilla goes straight to 99%, aplication does not crash but
ceases to respond.

Expected Results:  
Preview should have apeared and printing should have been possible.

I have observed this behavior since Mozilla 1.7.3 from time to time when trying
to print this was happened, I used to think it was random, but on gamespot.com
it happens all the time.
