           Summary: flash keeps on loading continuously and goes in a loop
                    which breaks the page
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525.x (Safari 3.1)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://www.oceanadventuresbarbados.com/oai/index.html
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jasneet at chromium.org
                CC: jasneet at chromium.org


I Steps:
Go to http://www.oceanadventuresbarbados.com/oai/index.html
When the flash loads mouse over/click on any link or just wait for the page to
load.

II Issue:
Clicking on any link in flash should change the content below flash.Since flash
keeps on loading sometimes the content doesnt change. ( pressing stop or Esc
stops the flash to go in the loop)

III Conclusion:
This issue is caused by the error of the html source code. There are two
separate html definition in the same source of the page:

The 1st html definition has a javascript error on onload handler
The 2nd html definition contains a javascript function which leads to endless
loop of loading.

IE/FF, when meet the error of the 1st html definition, it doesn't execute the
javascript function of the 2nd html definition; However webkit proceeds to
execute the javascript function of the 2nd html definition,  and therefore
falls into endless looping.

IV Other Browsers:
IE7: ok
FF3: ok

V Nightly tested: 37604
