I'm not seeing the problem, but my build is a few days old. I'll try again with  
fresh build over the weekend.

I can nolonger reproduce this problem. Clicking on these image used to freeze the 
browser in the previous build (May 09). Checked with the May 12th (2000051210) on 
Mac and Win 98 builds.

I'm not seeing this with today's build, so I'm marking it worksforme.

i'm not seeing a problem w/ the attached testcase (clicking on first 
picture) using my w32 cvs build from yesterday. verifying worksforme.

petersen: the url you entered for the bug was http:.//www.clorox.com is it 
possible that mozilla loaded that exact url and gave problems thereafter? I'm 
assuming that's not the case and changing the url to help me find real 
instances of http:[^/]
