Is this code crashing your browser too?

[Daniel Dimitrov]

Hey guys I'm on win7 64bit and I'm running ff7 + firebug 1.8.3. This code here crashes my browser:
http://groups.google.com/group/firebug
http://jsfiddle.net/eUuAu/2/

When firebug is open, then firefox crashes. If I close firebug then nothing happens. Can you confirm this?

[Jan Honza Odvarko]

I enabled all panels
loaded: http://jsfiddle.net/eUuAu/2/
opened Firebug (press F12)
refreshed the page

No crash for me.

Try to disable other extensions or create a new Firefox profile

Doesn't happen here in FF 8.0 beta under WinXP. I have 90 other
addons installed besides Firebug.

Just forgot to note that the only known crash happens with Firefox
nightly build (since last week)
It's reported here:

Hey guys,
Thank you for testing!
Could you please give it another try: http://jsfiddle.net/eUuAu/8/ ??? I'm not sure if it was clear that you had to click in the window.

I have only firebug installed - no other extensions. Any ideas how to help you debug this one (if you cannot confirm it with my code sample)? I mean - it clearly crashes my browser - there must be at least one other person in the world that will experience the same :)))

Cheers and have a great Saturday!

Crashes here as well. FF 7.0.1, FB 1.8.3, Windows 7 x64 both with and
without other extensions disabled. If clicking the yellow field with
firebug closed nothing happens.

I am seeing following error displayed in the Console panel:

too much recursion
this.fireEvent('crash');

But Firefox doesn't crash for me.

Please report a new bug + the test case and crash report:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Core

.. and post a link to the bug here.

Thanks!

Hey Jan,
So you advise me to post this as a firefox bug and not firebug's one? (just want to be sure)

Daniel

[Jan Honza Odvarko]

Yes

Any crash is always Firefox bug (Firebug is written in JavaSctipt and
it
should never cause the browser to crash).

[Daniel Dimitrov]

ok, submitted: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691051

Thank you all for the help!
Daniel

[Jan Honza Odvarko]

Great, thanks!

I have about 100 extensions installed...doesn't crash or overflow a stack...

But then I'm running 3.6.24...

But I did get a bug in firebug on Microsoft's forum sites:

A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding.
You can stop the script now, open the script in the debugger, or let the
script continue.

Script: chrome://firebug/content/lib.js:932

What debugger? I tried to open a debugger, but nothing happened.

Finally was able to close firebug and it recovered...

*ouch*.. Seems like a buggy firebug can really take a stable browser
