Build ID: 2001091103 on Win2k. Not using -turbo. Steps to reproduce the bug: 1. Load http://www.netcine.com/netcine/default.asp?page=verification 2. Click on the Black images 'NetCine' in the middle table at the bottom, which title says 'Test de bande passante (obligatoire)'. 3. While it tried to load this popup (I guess and it seems to fail), load another page by clicking Home. 4. On this page (presumably http://www.mozilla.org/start.html ), try to open a link in a new window (middle-click or right-click). It fails, links can only be open in the same window. This is the first bug. 5. Quit Mozilla. 6. Start Mozilla. 7. Mozilla fails to load. 8. Type Ctrl-Alt-Del to fire up the processes window (Win2k at least) and watch Mozilla still in memory. Have to kill it to be able to restart Mozilla. Expected behaviour: it shouldn't fails to open a link in a new window after such manipulations and Mozilla shouldn't remain in memory after quitting it. So happy to find a reproducible testcase for what I've seen in months of intensive Mozilla use ! I always used to have such a problem once every 2 days after surfing for hours when some sites involved JavaScript. I'll try to make a testcase ASAP before this site disappears.
Problem also shows on Linux with build 2001091108.

I made a reduced testcase that triggers the bug every time available at: http://www.epita.fr/~cahagn_o/mozbug/99333/ There's still HTML code to be removed but, so far, I know what triggers the bug, if you remove the following code, the page works (it's netcineok.html): from <body..., remove 'background=vague.gif' Then everything will work fine. I'll try to attach a more reduced testcase here, but I don't know how to link the fauly image with the HTML code via Bugzilla ?
I've uploaded a new very reduced testcase at http://www.epita.fr/~cahagn_o/mozbug/99333/ it's still netcine.html Added keyword 'testcase'.

Testing the new testcase the pop-up works fine. using build 2001091103 on win2k
I bet this is a dup of bug 88355. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 88355 ***
