           Summary: Qt WebKit freezing up on certain web sites
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P1
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: pgeorges at gmail.com

Certain websites seem to freeze up the entire Qt application on each load. This
is reproducible for me on every single load of these sites. On such site used
as an example is "clove.co.uk". 

Simply loading up the sample program below freezes up as it loads the page, and
freezes up after clicking on any link that takes you to another page on that
site. This happens with or without the plug ins enabled.

Reproducible under both CentOS 5.2 and Ubuntu 9.10 both with Qt4.6.0.

Sample program (freezes up for me on every load)

#include <QtGui/QApplication>
#include <QtWebKit/QWebView>
#include <QtWebKit/QWebSettings>

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
 QApplication app(argc, argv);
 QWebView webView;
 //freezes with and without plugins enabled
 //webView.settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::PluginsEnabled, true);
 webView.setUrl(QUrl::fromEncoded("http://www.clove.co.uk"));
 webView.show();
 return app.exec();
}
