same principle as huge.jpg...but anyway, does't crash firefox.
if you used an actual image with that tag, it would be much more effective.

did firefox actually crash, or did it just stop respoding for a moment, and you closed it?

screen froze, mouse & keyboard unresponsive, beep from PC unit, brief BSOD followed by an automatic reboot. :blink:
EDIT: XP Pro SP2 ... :wacko:
EDIT2: Update - Also crashes in Netscape Navigator on my PC. However, it works fine in Opera, .. :01:

$posts = $DB_site -> query("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post");
where ($post = mysql_fetch_array($posts))
{
echo $post['message'];
}

Sighhhhh. You guys give Firefox too much credit.
It worked for me on an old POS IBM Thinkpad laptop running Windows 2000 and IE 6.

A hole in IE exposes a driver, that you might or might not have, to a script that overloads it.
Other browsers don't have this hole - IE does.
You not crashing means that you don't have the particular Nvidia video driver, not that Firefox is any better or worse than 'those guys' are making out.

Cool.
Internet Explorer is exposing a video card driver bug.
I'm glad I don't have that particular buggy Nvidia display driver in my laptop then.
