Description of problem: Entering bugs against Fedora using guided bug entry causes Firefox to slow down to the point of unusability when selecting the component to report against. How reproducible: 100% across FF 2 on WinXP Pro, FF2 on Fedora 7, FF1.5 on FC6. IE7 on WinXP Pro shows similar behaviour. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select guided bug entry 2. Click next until "select product" select Fedora 3. Click next to get to "select component" page. Actual results: Firefox takes 100% cpu. Dragging the scrollbar for the component list is very slow, and one releasing the mouse it snaps back to the start of the list. Expected results: Should be possible to select your component. Additional info: This is effectively bad enough to prevent guided bug reporting for Fedora using Firefox. IE7 on Windows XP spins at 100% for a while, but does bring up the component list eventually. Before the component list comes up the selection box displays: Template::Document=HASH(0x1907370) After loading IE7 reports errors on the page: Lines 742, 713, 684, 655, 626, 597, 568, 539, 510, 481, 423, 278, 191, 75 Char: 1 Error: Object expected Code: 0 URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided Line: 225 Char: 9 Error: 'options' is null or not an object Code: 0 URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided
Guided bug entry is indeed broken at the moment and is being looked at.

This should be fixed now. Please reopen this bug if the problem persists.
If 'current' is 2.18-rh as currently at bugzilla.redhat.com then the scrolling problem described above persists in FF 2.0.0.5 on F7 and 1.0 on WinXP (the two versions I have here to test on). IE6 on WinXP works, though it reports the error on the page: Line: 187 Char: 9 Error: 'tms' is undefined Code: 0 URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided Proceeding through the reporting process I find that the version select menu shows the same problem but the architecture select menu does not. Will check again later and reopen if the problem has not resolved itself.
