337442 - under portable Firefox from PortableApps.com (its firefox with bits removed to make it small), DHTML/DXHTML files will cause FF to crash. this only affects the people using PFF with the latest update.

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Toolkit :: View Source, defect)

Description

[Morgan Gangwere]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060426 Firefox/1.5.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.3) Gecko/20060426 Firefox/1.5.0.3 PortableApps.com

within a View Source window, a DHTML or XML file that uses advanced "floaters" (mainly used within Dreamweaver from Macromedia) will cause FF to crash under no use otherwize; if another page, or even empty tab is open, no errors occur. under a debugger, the flags returned are "ERR_BAD_MD5_CHKSUM" and "ERR_BAD_CODE_FOUND". if another tab is open, "ERR_CANNOT_RENDER_PAGE". i have tested this under all PFF versions and found the same bug/error. this does NOT occur under regular FF.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a Dremweaver MX-04 or dreamweaver 8 window open.
2. load a floater from $dreamweaverhome\components\ into FF (PortableApps.com build)
3. view-> Source within FF

Actual Results:  
FF crash with no errors reported by FF gui, but under debugger (gdb / Borland degugger / MS Visual Studio debugger / Noron Post-Mortem Degugger), flags returned.

Expected Results:  
FF should have displayed an information window stating that the page was unreadable or was made for Dreamweaver.

MUST be running Portable Firefox from PortableApps.com

Mozilla does not release Portable Firefox. All issues with that product need to be reported to that products issue tracker.
