[Bug 891707] Re: java webstart creates infinite open windows, desktop DoS
** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
** Description changed:
To recreate the issue, use this sample JNLP site:
http://pscode.org/jws/api.html
click and run "basic service demo" from the browser.
A series of new windows will open, blank, one after the other,
- with no end in site.
+ with no end in sight.
It's so bad I had to switch to a tty and killall -9 firefox.
The behavior is the same if you were to download the jnlp instead
and use "gnome-open basicserv.jnlp".
However, if I were to use 'javaws basicserv.jnlp', the service
spawns just fine. If I change firefox to call javaws directly, it
also works just fine. This leads me to believe that there's a bug
in the mime handling for JNLP.
