Aside from the data collected automatically by Talkback, the crash dialog allows you to specify your email address, a URL, and comments about your crash. It is important that you provide us with as much useful information as you can to improve our ability to debug the issue. This includes the website you were visiting, any plugins or extensions you think might be related to the crash, what you were doing, etc. If you have been able to crash consistently, exact steps to reproduce the crash would be ideal! | Aside from the data collected automatically by Talkback, the crash dialog allows you to specify your email address, a URL, and comments about your crash.

== 4. As a developer for Mozilla's SVG code I'd like to learn how to narrow crash results to crashes occuring on SVG content. == | |||
There are a number of ways to narrow down your query results to find specific types of crashes. Using the QuickSearch query tool at [http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/talkback/fastfind.jsp http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/talkback/fastfind.jsp] | |||
, you can try the following: | |||
* Search by a keyword in the Comments field (e.g. "svg"). This might not give you exactly what you want, but should provide a good number of crashes from people that were looking at SVG content...and from those results, you will be able to find some good URLs and comments to help look into SVG crashes. | |||
* Search by a function in the code in the Stack Signature field (e.g. "nsSVGGradientFrame::GetNextGradient", "NPSVG3.dll"). You can even search for substrings (just make sure to select the proper pull down item for where in the complete string to search, like "Contains", "Begins With", etc.). | |||
* Search by a website in the URL field (e.g. "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/"). This probably isn't the best option, unless you already know of a website that people have been crashing on consistently...but it can allow you to see what types of crashes are happening at certain popular websites. | |||
