Build: 2000060508 Platforms: Works on Linux Redhat and Windows 98 Expected Results: After selecting Edit page, the composer application should open and display the current page. What I got: After selecting Edit page, the composer window is not opened. Selecting Edit page from the File menu again, results in a crash. Steps to reproduce: 1) Open any url like http://home.netscape.com. 2) After site loads, select Edit Page from the File menu. 3) Notice that the composer window is not opened. 4) Again reselect Edit Page from the File menu. 5) After a few seconds, the application crashes.

Hmmmm, I don't think this is a Navigator bug. :-)

With the June 6th build (2000-06-06-08), I still get a crash when attempting to edit a page viewed in the browser. I have deleted the mozilla registry and the documents folder and pulled a fresh build manually. I can only reproduce this problem under Mac OS 9. Here are my simplified steps: 1) Launch NS6. 2) Default page opens in browser (http://home.netscape.com/). 3) Select Edit Page from File menu. 4) After a few seconds, the composer editing window doesn't open. 5) Reselect Edit page again. The application crashes.

at the moment, I can't reproduce this bug on my debug Macintosh build from today. I do notice that home.netscape.com's web page has a form on it. Can someone narrow down the page or testcase?
I can't repro this in a debug build from today.
Maybe there is something wrong with the build I have ?
An installed commercial build also doesn't crash for me, like this, when doing Edit Page on home.netscape.com. However, it does crash when closing the resulting composer window (which is bug 41605). I wonder if sometimes it doesn't crash on close, but does the next time you open a composer window?

chris: please verify that this works for you, for the *first* time. Second and subsequent times during a run may be confused by bug 41605.
Turns out that this bug is a low memory issue that simon is already working. Marking verified dup of 20743.
