Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Konqi krashes on http://www.edmontonsun.com/News/Alberta/2006/10/29/2165333-sun.html. I've narrowed it down to a javascript error. The script appears to be trying to change css properties such as color and such for heading elements. In the attached test case, if you comment out two lines in the script (see source), it won't crash. These two lines are *very* similar to other lines in the script that seem to work OK. Potentially relevant is that the script seems to have something to do with *.swf, which I do not have installed thanks to adobe (Linux x86_64). That possibility should be checked by someone with flash before this bug is confirmed. Even so, I don't want Konqi to crash on a page just because the page expects flash and I don't have it. Thanks, Mark A. Taff
Created attachment 18321 [details] Crash testcase Test case. Will crash.
No crash here, 3.5.5, no flash plugin installed.
$$$^&%&*()^%&*(% Crash Bugs! This is the 4th time I've tried to respond. It won't crash when you click on the test case link. It will when launched from a desktop icon. It will also crash when accessed from a webserver. Try http://www.marktaff.com/test2.html Note I'm changing webhosts, so the file may dissappear, but you should be able to put the test case file on any server and get the same results. Regards, Mark
No crash for link: marktaff.com/test2.html
Thanks for checking Lexual. Still crashes here as noted above. Hopefully someone else can reproduce.
Any chance you're using GPL flash or such?
And also, please specify the backtrace. And yes, the script -only- has to do with flash -- it's replacing html headings with flash ones.
Created attachment 18331 [details] Backtrace Backtrace. Must remember not to use Konqi when working with Konqi crash bugs... I don't think I am using any flash. Searching to "flash" in smart shows nothing installed. There is a flash-player 7.0.68.0-1.2 for i586 that isn't installed (none for x86_64). I have also tested on another box, this one *i586* Konqi 3.5.5, with no flash. On that i586 box, Konqi doesn't crash. HTH, Mark
No crash here konqueror 3.5.7 (archlinux) with flash plugin with "load on demand only" (even if I run it, it only shows a black background on the flash movie, but no crash)
Could you check also that you don't have swfdec|gnash|klash installed.
*** Bug 142258 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Mark, have you seen this problem with 3.5.9 or one of the 4.0.x releases?
I am unable to reproduce this bug from the test case, or from surfing the Edmonton Sun website, despite my best efforts ;-). I have checked on two machines (x86_64 & i386), both with Konqi 3.5.9 (haven't made the plunge to 4.0 yet). Something has obviously changed, and I suspect this bug got fixed by the Konqi devs along the way. I also went and checked out bug 142258 from both boxes, and Konqi works fine there as well. I am going to close this bug--if anyone can come up with new evidence, please reopen. Thanks for checking on it Phil.
