Description

Trying to load CNN in today's build (03-14) fails with the following messages:

`window != NULL' failed.

After aborting CNN, I attempted to load a new URL (Alt-L), and got the last few
error messages.

hmm 2000031405 works OK on CNN for me. The "sneaking carpet" grey "overlay" is
back when you scroll slowly up and down, but no error messages.

also unable to reproduce with today's win32 bits under NT.

Comment 3

[Doron Rosenberg (IBM)]

reporter - try to reinstall mozilla, be sure to kill the old install.

does it still get this then? Ans do you get the error at cnn.com all the time?

Comment 4

Package and .mozilla directory killed. Today (3-15) build downloaded. I untared
the file, and created a new profile on startup. Problem still occurs. Once I
have aborted the CNN load, giving the Mozilla window focus causes
 
Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkwindow.c: line 1707 (gdk_window_get_parent): assertion
`window != NULL' failed.                                

to repeat. This happenes every time I attempt to load the page.

Further clarification: the problem only occur if I use Alt-L to open a new URL.
Typing the url into the browse line directly loads the page successfully.

Comment 6

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

Interesting, only when you open with Alt L... could be or be related to bug 31804

Confirmed with 2000-03-15-17 on Linux.
I noticed that a new Gdk-CRITICAL ** etc... line appeared in the console
each time I moved the mouse inside mozilla's window (I use KDE with window
autoraise on).
When I clicked on Stop, it crashed shortly after. Gdb's backtrace is:

Marking confirmed, adding crash keyword, modifying summary line.

FYI bug #25155 has the same stack trace, and has some explanations.
