(Core :: DOM: Core & HTML, defect, P5)

Description

[[e-mail]]

Steps to reproduce problem:
1. Load a long document
2. Click on a link to a slow document
3. While waiting the the slow document, click on a scrollbar.

Actual result: one of the following two assertions:

ASSERTION: failed to get the nsIScriptGlobalObject. bug 95465?: 'boundGlobal', file c:/suiterunner/mozilla/content/xbl/src/nsXBLPrototypeHandler.cpp, line 462

ASSERTION: XPConnect is being called on a scope without a 'Components' property!

So why is this a docshell issue?  Looks more like a DOM/XUL/XPConnect problem.  Please reassign as you deem appropriate.

Well from my point of view I asked the docshell to start loading a document and suddenly the currently extant document either no longer has its script global or has one that has been torn down. Anything more was just speculation.

Ah, I see.  Yeah, definitely not a docshell issue.

If this is a regression, when did this regress?

I don't see the XPConnect assertion with current or older builds, but I do see the nsIScriptGlobalObject assertion.  That goes back at least to April 1, 2006 on trunk.  The assertion also occurs in recent 1.8 and 1.8.0 branch builds.

Neil, can you still reproduce this?

It doesn't assert any more, although I can get a lot of NS_ENSURE_TRUE(piTarget) failed warnings.
