275615 - crash while trying to drag and drop selected text on the page. [@ PresShell::HandleEventInternal]

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Mihail Daskalov]

Mozilla 1.8a6 on Windows 2000 - browser crashes.
Right before the crash occured I was clicking and moving my mouse across the
page I was reading.

This is the way I read the page I select text line by line with the mouse.
Accidentially when trying to select the next line of text I had clicked on the
already selected text and tried to drag and drop it. And mozilla crashed...

To reproduce (very rare/difficult):
 1. go to some web page;
 2. select some text;
 3. try to drag it to another place in page;
 4. crash ...

Talkback ID TB2652489H originally included in Bug 275356 but is not related to it.

So I'l open a new bug for this.

This might be a duplicate of the more than a thousand other crashers in
PresShell::HandleEventInternal.

Or related or duplicate of some of the other recent crashers e.g. Bug 275548
or bug 275574.

I personally can't pick one.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
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.
