User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5 After inserting a number of nested elements (table) using DOM a use of the feature "view selection source" instantly makes Firefox crash with an "Unreported Problem" (without freezing). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use the following source-code in a page <body> <script> // the crash seems to depend on the number of loops (i and j), for instance if i < 5 nothing happened when I tried. var tmp, tmp2, table = document.createElement( "table" ); for(var i = 0; i < 6; i++) { tmp = document.createElement( "tr"); tmp2 = document.createElement( "th"); tmp.appendChild(tmp2); table.appendChild(tmp); for(var j = 0; j < 6; j ++) tmp.appendChild(document.createElement( "td")); } document.body.appendChild(table); </script> Select this text, right-click, view selection source and firefox crashes (1.5) </body> 2. Select the text, click on "view selection source", the browser should report an unexpected error and close (if not try increasing the variables (i & j). Actual Results: Firefox crashes (in some cases shows the source before doing so). This appears to be some kind of overflow as it depends on the number of repetitions in the loops whether the browser crashes. Maybe I made improper use of the tmp and tmp2 variables, in any case - its still a bug.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060201 Firefox/1.6a1 ID:2006020105 Tried it in 1.5, 1.0.7, branch and trunk but it doesn't crash here. Could you provide a Talkback ID?
