371584 - Open/Save dialogs crash the browser

Status: VERIFIED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Steve McBride]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070219 Firefox/2.0.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070219 Firefox/2.0.0.2

Two distinct but similar actions cause Firefox to shut down suddenly:

1. Attempting to save a chat from within ChatZilla. (Chatzilla > Save View As)

2. Attempting to open a file with a Browse button on a website (e.g. Imageshack)

This has ONLY happened since the 2.0.0.2 update installed. Chat buddies who have this update and use Windows have confirmed that they don't have this problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://imageshack.us.
2. Hit the Browse button.
3. Like with all things Mac, there is no step three.
Actual Results:  
The browser windows all close, and the standard MacOS "Report error?" type window pops up.

Expected Results:  
In the case of Imageshack, a standard MacOS Open dialog should have opened. In the case of Chatzilla, a smaller dialog to save the chat as [name of room].html should have popped up.

Me again. I have now discovered that the same thing happens when I bring up Print.

If yes, please comment
If not, please close with resolution set to WORKSFORME or INVALID (if problem was extension or the like)
