Attachment: A Web page (with style and images). Firefox crashes on it.

Comment 2

[Phil Miller]

Works for me, though on Windows:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

If you can reproduce this under a debugger, giving a backtrace would be helpful (not sure if TalkBack is enabled in the Debian builds, as I've never seen it).
1. gdb firefox ./index.html
2. watch for crash
3. type command 'bt' in gdb
4. copy and paste backtrace results.

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060102 Firefox/1.6a1

Works for me.

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060220 Firefox/1.6a1 ID:0000000000
Works for me.
Did you submit a Talkback report for the crash? If so, can you post the Talkback ID up here, please?
Can you reproduce this bug when running Firefox in safe mode? (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode)

-> incomplete

Victor, when this is still a reproducible problem for you in a recent firefox release, please see comment #4.

It would be great, if you could provide a Talkback ID then.
