User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050513 Galeon/1.3.21 (Debian package 1.3.21-1+gnome28+1) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050513 Galeon/1.3.21 (Debian package 1.3.21-1+gnome28+1) Something like "while(1) alert('bugger')" can render a page useless. But when the alert dialog blocks events to the whole browser, it renders the app useless. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to demo URL (http://www.siteexperts.com/dhtmllib/demos/marquee/demo.asp) 2. Click on one of the Up/Left/Right/Down, a javascript alert displays "Please wait until the page is finished loading." 3. Click "OK", the same alert displays again. Reproductible in Debian GNU/Linux with Mozilla 1.7.8, Firefox 1.0.4 and Galeon 1.3.21. Actual Results: The browser could not receive mouse or keyboard events, I had to force-quit it. Expected Results: I guess that the javascript alert should have been modal to the page it originated from, and I could have simply closed this page (more exactly 'tab' im my case).
