Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
Ubuntu 8.04
OOo 2.4
Firefox 3.0.15
Intel 1.6GHz CPU
2.0 GB ram
OOo Writer often crashes (sometimes in the form of a freeze) while trying to
deal with a web page copied from a Firefox window. The crashes (usually) and
ocassional freezes happen when I try to:
* paste the web page into a new OOo writer document.
* scroll through a newly pasted, not yet saved, (former?) web page in a new
OOo writer document.
* save a newly pasted (former?) web page in a new OOo writer document for
the first time.
Today, for the first time, OOo Writer displayed the following message
when it froze after I pressed ctrl+s:
Error saving the document Untitled1:

They are different problems, and I will report them separately, but:
1. It would be nice if this bug reporting page let me attach the
screenshot of the error message to save the time it took to type and
proofread the text that appears above.
2. The first time I tried to report this bug, I'd gotten to this point
when I clicked https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage to see if I
could include any other information (package, etc) that might help. When
I returned from that page, the bug report form I'd nearly completed was
blank! Silly me; who'd think the people who support linked web pages
would protect the content of one while the other was displayed?
