Whenever you visit http://www.tutorials.de/tutorials20961.html (and scroll down, until "Code: " is displayed in the 3. posting (from Socke)) Mozilla crashes. The line contains weird characters. I tried that crash several times and other Linux-Users have the same problem (some with firebird, some with mozilla, ...). A sidenote: Mozilla does not crash, when the "view source" window is open - strange? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. visit http://www.tutorials.de/tutorials20961.html 2. scroll down 3. enjoy the show Actual Results: crash Expected Results: display the page / not crash http://home.c-otto.de/crash.html is the source, if the original gets deleted Viewing that page (so without CSS and Images from the original page) does not cause a crash

do you have Microsoft .fon fonts in your fonts directories ? Does deleting (or archiving) them prevent from crashing ? Could be bug 180309. My feeling is that page crashes only when scrolling because of the HTML displaying fonts with "MS Sans Serif". I'm thinking of sseriff.fon or sserife.fon.

I don't have this font. The online files with *serif* are these: /usr/share/xine/libxine1/fonts/serif-16.xinefont.gz /usr/share/xine/libxine1/fonts/serif-20.xinefont.gz /usr/share/xine/libxine1/fonts/serif-24.xinefont.gz /usr/share/xine/libxine1/fonts/serif-32.xinefont.gz And I doubt it is a font-error, because several others with different mozilla-versions experienced the same crash.
"only files", not online
do you crash using latest pre-1.6 build or the Firebird XFT build ? This is probably fixed via bug 213734. http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/nightly/latest-1.6/ http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firebird/nightly/latest-0.8/
This (see below) is my version at the moment and the bug still exists. Since I am using Gentoo and the bug is independent from my PC I will not install any other version. Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031119
Can you get a stack and attach it via "create a new attachment" ? http://www.mozilla.org/unix/debugging-faq.html if you're using the standard mozilla startup script, just do % mozilla -g -d gdb (gdb) run [wait for mozilla to crash] (gdb) bt (attach the output from "bt" here)
Attached file output of gdb's "bt" (deleted) —
ddd -> open file "mozilla-bin" -> run -> crash -> bt
thanks for the stack, that helps as it's the same as in bug 213734. Upgrade to 1.6 when it's out for Gentoo and reopen if still crashing. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 213734 ***
