Firefox in linux, 32 & 64 bit versions, crashes when accessing the page mentioned with the following error message. There is no such crash when using firefox within win7. The crash is repeatable.
Any ideas what the problem is? Firefox? Kernel? ???
i don’t have FF 3.6.10 anymore, using 4.05b from mozilla:beta repo, which opens the page mentioned fine–also opera (10.63), chromium (7.0.528.0) and konqueror (webkit & KHTML) don’t have problems. would be interesting to see if others with FF 3.6.10 have the same experience…

phani.
edit: didn’t see the previous post before posting myself; seems to be a FF problem and should probably be reported to mozilla.

No crash with firefos 3.6.10 and opensuse 11.3 64bit on my PC the page opens
just fine. So it is not a general firefox problem but something more
specific. My KDE is 4.5.2.

Just to give more info for comparism from the system where it works:
MozillaFirefox-3.6.10-0.3.1.x86_64
kernel 2.6.34.7-0.4-desktop x86_64
(KDE 4.5.2) “release 9”
No idea if graphic card driver can be a problem on the other systems but
here is mine
x11-video-nvidiaG02-256.53-16.1.x86_64
installed from nvidia repo.
Maybe that gives some hint for the systems where it does not work what the
difference is.

Accessing the OP page does not crash Firefox, however two (2) errors are logged to the Firefox “Error Console”:
Security Error: Content at http://www.cpsport.de/sorel-herren-winter-stiefel-caribou-nm1000014-p-14999.html?ref=20 may not load or link to file:///C:/Users/M1/Desktop/Logo%20DHL%20Paket%20Deutschland/dp-dhl_logo23_150.jpg.

The above indicate an attempt to access a “local” image for the page. The image appears hard-coded for Windows 7 :

I sent a crash report to Mozilla with the builtin crash report tool, I
recommend that everybody else does the same to raise the priority at mozilla
to fix it.

After several trials on the webpage, I can confirm Firefox only crashes when the mouse moves over the main article graphics (picture of item on sale).
If the mouse does not cross the particular graphics boundary the rest of the page seems to be stable.
This perhaps is more of a problem for the retailer but Firefox should block graphics that it can’t handle.
In the last 18 hours I’ve visited 500-600 vendor webpages and this is the only one showing a problem within Firefox.
Same result at that URL. Seems to be the left-hand boot graphic. Filed crash report.
Config - OpenSuSE 11.3, KDE, Firefox & opensourse nVidia driver all fresh / current patch level from OpenSuSE OSS & Update repositories.
Are we all w/ this problem maybe running the opensource nVidia driver? Anybody getting this crash with different graphics family, or with the nVidia sourced driver?

I use the closed source nvidia driver version 256.53 (and have the crash). I
can check tomorrow on my wifes notebook with intel graphics card if she sees
the same crash.

checked on my wifes laptop with intel graphics card it is the same (11.3
64bit same firefox). And from the description from SeanMc98 about the access
to local files I think it is simply an invalid pointer or something similar
in firefox which happens when accessing a non existing ressource.
Let’s hope for a bugfix soon. But this is really the very first web page I
have seen with that problem (but of course firefox should not crash).

Same over here - crashes with 3.6.11, also tested with a fresh profile. However, the culprit is obviously the webpage, not Firefox, so it should be reported to the maintainer of the site.
