Hmm, nasty. Reporter, do you have a reproducable test case for this ?
Kinda :) If you have a movabletype installation, what I have done is: Create a New Entry Then type in a Title Change the category to "Add New Category ..." Hit Tab for it to pop up the input box for the new category name Type in a new category Hit Submit Crash

This crash annoys me to no end, so I'd like to rebuild my own 1.3.14 RPM. Where can I find the patch that fixes this particular error (web CVS at GNOME seems to be down)? BTW, I've tried building the current CVS head but that didn't go all that well. I'm on FC2T3.
There isn't a fix for this. I can't reproduce it, although haven't yet got round to installing movabletype. If someone has an easier test case than needing a movabletype installation, please tell me. Bugs that can't be reproduced are _very_ hard to fix ...
I understand. I must have misread the bug report (I thought this was resolved). I'll wait patiently...
This may be caused by stale fonts (from previous RHL installs). I just had Epiphany 1.2.5 crash in exactly the same way.
This is absolutely nothing to do with fonts .... I have found a site that causes this crash, so expect a fix soon: (from ephy bug 142184) 1) Go to http://www.frip.dk/boksidan/ 2) Close the popup window that appears.
Finally, I have fixed this in CVS, and added a little test case to our popup test file: http://lists.gnome.org/archives/cvs-commits-list/2004-May/msg01764.html (for information, the crash is caused because the javascript never does a "document.close()" on the new window, and so the title never gets updated. When you close the window, the embed decides that the load has stopped, and so updates the title to wyciwg://0/.... and then emits the signal. This is caught and propgated down to the GaleonTab object which is still listening. This then attempts to update the title in the notebook, which has long since removed the tab from itself, causing warnings and crashes.)
Awesome! Thank you for fixing this. This bug has been driving me mad for quite some time because I just have to have Galeon - nothing under Gnome comes even close.
