You have already filed a bug about MySpace today (bug 9741), so I'm removing it from the summary. Please provide the additional information requested there. Please provide the same details about eBay in this bug.

I just tried browsing ebay.com to see if there were any issues, and I actually crashed within a minute. Now I'll try to list how to reproduce it reliably.

Changing to P1, as this is a crash.

Crash log (WebCore::Frame::page())

I've found two ways to crash WebKit r15181 on ebay.com:

Crash 1 (the Crash log attachment)
Go to the following pages, in order:
1. http://cgi.ebay.com/Old-Estate-African-Sculpture-Statue-Africa-Gabon-Punu_W0QQitemZ330003588514QQihZ014QQcategoryZ37947QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem 
2. http://www.ebay.com/ 
3. http://hub.ebay.com/buy
4. Crash.

Crash 2 (the Crash log 2 attachment)
1. Go to the above pages, in order, but omit number 2. 
2. Close the window 
3. Crash.

Confirming the same behavior as Jonathan, seems a big problem. Changing summary to reflect contents of the bug. 

Reporter: thx for the bug, for future bugs, you might want to read this: http://webkit.opendarwin.org/quality/reporting.html, as bugs filed with more details are usually solved faster :). 

Adding HitListCandidate keyword, as this should really be on there, imho. CC-ing Geoff for that reason.

[Geoffrey Garen]

Hmmm... I can't seem to repro.

[Joost de Valk (AlthA)]

I can, comment #4 states it: 
1 follow the url
2 click the ebay icon top left
3 click buy in the menu
4. page starts to load, and then webkit crashes.

[Geoffrey Garen]

Awesome. Thanks. I was copying the URLs directly; it looks like you actually have to click inside the page to make it crash.

I've seen the first two crash logs, and also the coveted unreproducible Collector::collect() crash. This is a really exciting bug!

I can no longer reproduce this with ToT (r15404).  After a binary search through recent revisions, r15218 is the last in which I can reproduce the crash.  Revision 15219 is the fix for bug 9777 (Reproducible crash in Loading/Frames in ToT).  It seems that patch either fixed or masked this bug from appearing.

I can't cause a crash using either of these methods under rev15498, despite repeated attempts.

Can't reproduce either, closing as fixed.

[Geoffrey Garen]

FYI, I also confirmed that this is fixed.
