31315 - crash if mozilla tries to render page while mouse events in queue

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect, P3)

Description

[Luis Garrido]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; N; Linux 2.2.12-20 i686; en-US; m14)
BuildID:    2000030709

The browser crashes if it tries to render a page that is
being loaded and there are still some mouse events related to
vertical scrolling in the queue.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load any page (it should be a page in which the right scroll bar appears)
2.Enter any URL, and while mozilla is transfering data, move the right vertical
scrollbar up and down.
3.When mozilla blanks screen and tries to render the new page, mozilla crashes
since it seems that there are some mouse events associated to the vertical
scrolling in the queue.


Actual Results:  Mozilla Crashes

Tried to reproduce on WinNT with 2000-03-13-08-M15; no crash.
Scrolling stops and the blank page is shown as soon as "Transferring data..."
appears in the status bar. This may be linux-only or may be fixed already.

To reproduce, pre-type the new URL and hit [Enter] ready to click the 
scrollbar immediately, to beat the page load. Even then, it may be necessary
to use a slow link.

Luis emailed me these comments to add to this bug as he could not reach the bug 
himself:

  I wanted to comment that I cannot reproduce the bug with the win32
build. And it seems that with the 2000-03-13-16-M15 build for Linux
the bug I posted has been solved. So I think that the bug status could
be changed to FIXED.

  Best regards
