OS X 10.8.5
Vienna 3.0.0 RC 1 :6ccabc5:
Firefox 29.0.1

Bug description:

With Vienna running, but Firefox not running, when I double-click on one of the articles in the article list, Firefox attempts to start and opens the article page, but after a second or so it crashes.

It is possible that the bug is really in Firefox, but maybe you would do a better job of reporting it to them than I would. Firefox doesn't crash under other circumstances, so it is something related to Vienna.

Preferences:

As implied, my preferences are to open articles in an external browser. I don't think I'm using a theme other than the default.

Feed URL:

Happens on any feed URL, but here is one for example:

http://creation.com/rss.php

I could not reproduce the problem.
Does it also occur when Firefox is already opened ?
Or when you open an URL from another app than Vienna ?

Yes. I hadn't noticed that before, but it does.

No, I opening it from a PDF file for example, and it didn't crash then.

I take that back, if Firefox isn't running and I click the link in a PDF file, Firefox will start loading the page and then crash. This seems to indicate that it isn't a Vienna bug, so I'll take it up with Firefox instead.

Thanks for the help!

You should probably trash your Firefox preferences file first.

Also, try disabling all your Firefox add-ins and adding them back one-by-one to see if any are the cause of the problem.
