xltronic keeps crashing my browser

Often when I'm reading a topic then I click the back button
to go back to the main index Safari will crash. Is this a
known bug?

Seems to only happen if I have mulitple tabs open.

It just happened to me while using safari as well. Only ever
happens on XLT, too.

Told Phobs, but because he has his Anti-Apple stance, I
don't think he will do anything :(

opera's based on the same rendering engine as konqueror,
usually found on kde under linux.

i usually use firefox, but on the odd occasion using konq,
never had any problems.

personally, i'd suggest using firefox. i find it a better
browser all around, especially since 1.5 was released.
safari seems to like crashing a lot.

Safari is easily my favourite browser, Firefox looks a bit
"cheap" to me. I have used it a few times and like it, but
prefer the Safari interface by a squillion miles.

Plus, the only time that it ever crashes is when using XLT.

yeah, fair enough, it has some nice features, for sure.

i just consider a browser quite broken/flawed if it easily
crashes due to a webpage's malformed (i assume) code. a web
browser should /not/ crash, full stop, due to any code on
any page (plugins a different story of course).

my bet is it's related to either the javascript, or
externally called code (various ads in iframes, etc)?
regardless, it's still a fault of the browser, imho.

has anybody put a bug report into apple, specifically
against this website? sure, phobia might be able to fix the
problem, but that isn't going to stop the same flaw in
another website, you know?

I've put a bug report to Apple, also had a mini-grumble to
Phobs about it too.

Oddly I've had a few Firefox crashes in the last couple of
days. It's never crashed before though. Bloody browsers and
all their technical doohickies :(

heh, yeah, firefox certainly isn't perfect in that regard,
either. crashes on me, a bit, too. 1.5 seems less stable
on windows, but more stable on linux/osx.

i have the same problem... what version of safari do you
have?

it seems that submitting "bug reports" to Apple, do nothing
to stop the problem.

perhaps you could light your computer on fire, and polish
your own turds.

...is just IE with an addon for tabbed browsing. Still not
good nor safe to use.

Today on "Amazing Adventures From Ages Past":
The mighty Phobiasaurus fights the J-Rex for a piece of
wood for his tea, but the J-Rex takes the wood and jumps
into the ocean, making pursuit impossible. However, the
Phobiasaurus' friend, the Tunefish, uses his search engine
to locate the J-Rex' landing spot and a throng of
Qrterdactyls attack from the sky.
Meanwhile, the herbivore Uzimastodon eats an eggplant and
discovers the answer to the question "are eggplants edible?"
and a small herd of Samricorns are attacked by several
Matusaurs.


stay tuned for more Amazing Adventures From Ages
Past

i don't have any problems with firefox, but recently i was
running soulseek and browsing xlt in firefox simultaneously,
and then my DSL connection crashed, and i had to reset my
modem. dunno how that happened, but for some reason i
couldn't get to the rest of XLT that day.... odd...
