31562 - CSS in referenced document causes browser to hang/crash

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Layout, defect, P3)

Description

[Ian Graham]

Environment: Build 2000022916 (M14), Windows 98

Loading the referenced document (which uses CSS to position div
eleements and float images) causes the browser to hang and/or crash.
However, by removing the style element content -- resulting in
the document:

then what's left renders fine. 

Note that removing the style element only eliminated some of 
the CSS rules (there are also style attributes in the document).

The HTML and CSS are valid according to the W3 validation services.

Steps To reproduce:

  1) Start Mozilla
  2) Access referenced URL
  3) Browser hangs (and occasionally crashes properly)
