[Bug 31631] Re: Java applet makes Firefox crash, 100% cpu usage

Mon Apr 14 12:54:57 UTC 2008

I observed the same in 7.10 when loading an applet with a (slightly)
invalid code attribute of the applet tag:

When the package parts are separated with backslashes like windows
paths, e.g. code="com\example\stuff\Myclass.class", Mozilla and IE will
gladly load and run the applet under windows.

However, on Ubuntu 7.10, Firefox stalls and hogs the CPU.

As far as I can see, this is the same for Java 5 or 6.

A valid code attribute would of course look like this:
code="com.example.stuff.Myclass.class"
