           Summary: goes to a infinite loop if the event is bubbled
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: PC
               URL: attached html code
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore JavaScript
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: sornalatha.rathnasamy at nokia.com

it goes to a infinite loop if the event is a bubble_event and
while bubbling if one of the ancestor node calls the same event on the target
node which originated the event
suggestion for fixing is that don't call the event :
1) if the event phase is BUBBLING_PHASE
2) and if the current event's target element(the originator of the event) is
the same as the node on which the event is going to be invoked
3) and if the event types(id such as click,focus etc) of the above two nodes
are same.

Please suggest any drawbacks to this fix or if there is a better fix.
The test page is:
<html>
<head/>
<body>
<form>
<div onclick="JavaScript:alert('div
element');JavaScript:document.getElementById('segment116985839').click();">
<input name="segment1" id="segment116985839" value="test" type="radio"
onclick="javascript:alert('input element');">
</div>
</input>
</form>
</body>
</html>
