275728 - page seems stuck on 'download' but view source has full page

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Joachim Noreiko]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910

Mozilla sometimes gets stuck on a page. Nothing renders at all, there's just a
blank tab, and the download indicators keep going for mninutes on end. 
Yet doing "view source" has the full source for the wanted page, right down to
the closing HTML tag.

I'm afraid I can't reproduce this, it's an intermittent problem. It always
happens when I have more than one tab open, and possibly (though I can't be
sure) when I've requested several tabs to load with a group bookmark.

(There are a number of other "slow load" bugs -- maybe this is related to them
and the other reporters haven't been perverse enough to check page source?)

Reproducible: Always

I think this tends to happen with pages that are generated by the server, eg
Wikipedia. I can't yet confirm that this is always the case, but I'm keeping an
eye on it.

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.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
