Bug 120651

I just recognized that the version is unspecified on the bug's page, allthough I clicked 3.5.0 in the bug wizard.

Because I can't change it, here it is:

  3.5 using KDE 3.5.0 Level "a"

Similar to this one, but I've Allans patch so it's a bit different bug. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116861

Got a segmentation fault when I tried to print that page to a Potscript File. The results where:

...

and so on forever. Probably that's the reason why I don't get the usual [ck]rash handler window. :)

Confirmed. Bug still present in KDE 3.5.5 (openSUSE build service RPMs for SUSE 10.0).

More info: it suffice to choose "Print to file (PDF)". You'll notice how in "top" then Konqui's memory consumption starts to continually increase and never stop. Clicking "Cancel" on the "Print Status" progress dialog kills that dialog, but Konqui still hangs, and top still shows that memory usage increases. You need to kill the PID to get out of that, or wait for the segfault to occur...

Tested with Opera 9.1 and Firefox 1.5.0.9. Both have no problem. Opera creates the print preview (24 pages) in an instant (less than 1 second), Firefox similar.

Printing to a PS file works for both without a hickup.

The online HTML-->PDF converter at http://www.easysw.com/htmldoc/pdf-o-matic.php is also able to convert this page to PDF without a problem. 

Also, the page validates completely: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fde.selfhtml.org%2Fnavigation%2Fhtml.htm


Which means the bug is probably in KHTML rather than somewhere else  :-)

Give up trying to make a nice break, when a table makes one impossible.
