Details
the search form at the top of cnn.com causes a crash
using the 11/30 build on NT and win98.
part of the form code is below.
basically, there is a js call (document.seek_top.submit())
to do a GET request when "go" is clicked on.
<FORM NAME="seek_top" METHOD=GET ACTION="http://search.cnn.com:8765/query.html">
<A HREF="javascript:document.seek_top.submit()"><FONT FACE="Helvetica,
Arial,sans-serif" COLOR="#FFFFFF" SIZE="2">go</FONT></A>

This one can be distilled to:
http://blueviper/forms/submitcrash.html
It appears that JS is trying to fetch the property "submit" of the form seek_top
and is getting back a null. Still looking into it.

Gecko no longer crashes in this case
cnn.com has changed their page for Gecko's useragent string. However, I tested
with an old version I had saved (blueviper/forms/submitcrash_cnn.html) and the
"distilled version" (blueviper/forms/submitcrash.html) and neither caused a
crash.
