From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.1 i686; en-US; m18) Gecko/20010116 BuildID: 0000000000 The page http://www.newsday.com/coverage/current/news/monday/nd4605.htm displays as a blank white page, after the throbber throbs for a while. The page renders fine in NS4.x, and contains no DOCTYPE so should be defaulting to quirks mode. Additionally it does not contain a <form> in the <head>, so does not seem to be a dup of bug 66985. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Go to the URL: http://www.newsday.com/coverage/current/news/monday/nd4605.htm Actual Results: Blank white page, no scrollbars. Expected Results: Fairly lengthy page with text, tiled background image, etc.
Reporter can you try to use an new build, I used build 2001012920 for that link without a problem. btw, it seems that bugzilla helper didn't find your build ID.
I entered 0000000000 manually since that denotes a CVS-built moz. More specifically, a moz fresh fresh fresh from the head, just how we like it! So it's a 'current' problem at time of writing...
So another regression.
Attached file reduced testcase
External JS with <LINK CSS> would not render.

r=jst for patch v1.1
get super review and send mail to drivers@mozilla.org to get this into m0.8
Any idea if this bug affects the top 100 sites. In other words, is this a high profile bug? If it's then we can convince the PDT for 0.8. For now setting milestone to 0.9 :-(

Attached patch patch v1.2Splinter Review
r=jst for patch v1.2 too.
Another site with simmilar behaviour: http://www.jc-news.com/pc I don't know if it's the same bug, but it's (2-3 days old) regression too. Please fix it in 0.8, please.
The semantics of BlockParser/UnblockParser/ContinueParsing should be better documented in the interface header - my head is still reeling. Other than that, sr=vidur.
Another site that renders as blank white page: http://tboweb.com/features/crosword.htm Click on the button which takes you to the crossword. It starts to render the java crossword and then replaces with a blank white page.
Possible dup of bug 66034, "Content in Mozilla disappears seemingly at random", which is marked as "critical for 0.8".
tested this patch on mac and it fixed the three test cases mentioned in this bug, the attached one and http://www.jc-news.com/pc and http://tboweb.com/features/crosword.htm I surfed my 40 or so bookmarks and didn't se any new problems. If this passes Harish's testing then I'd like to see it in 0.8.
Fix is in. Marking FIXED.
