Details

(Keywords: crash)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:19.0) Gecko/19.0 Firefox/19.0
Build ID: 20121111030749

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to localhost:8080 (thing I'm working on, haven't confirmed yet if this happens on other sites).
2. Cmd-P to open print dialog.
3. PDF dropdown menu > Print to PDF...
4. Change values in Title/Author
5. Click OK/Print button


Actual results:

Firefox crashes immediately. This is reproducible in my current state (I'm on nightly, will try for an update, see if it helps).

Note that it creates a zero-bytes PDF file at the correct location.


Expected results:

Firefox should create PDF and close dialogs and behave normally :)
Empty values in Title/Author metadata fields still trigger a crash.
Woo! It's not specific to my code. Tried it (and it still crashes) with https://coderwall.com/p/96ytxa
And just to be sure, tested it with https://simple-light-5419.herokuapp.com/ — Still fails. This is a valid, empty, HTML5 page (=> <!DOCTYPE html><html><head><meta charset='UTF-8'/></head><body></body></html>).
