Bear vs. Fox, Fox Loses
Dec. 16th, 2007 11:41 amWhenever I visit
matociquala using Firefox on the Mac (latest version, 2.0.0.9), the window hangs (spinner stops spinning, nonresponsive to clicks or keyboard). The hang only affects the current window; the application is still responsive, and the window can be closed, but I can't read the rest of the page. The message displayed at the lower left is either "Read userpics.livejournal.com" or "Read lj-toys.com" and the error console shows several instances of "Error: uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method Location.toString". No problems in Safari on the same machine. Any idea what might be the cause?
ETA: Updated to 2.0.0.11 and it's still the same. But if you use a text size larger than the default, it does not hang. ETA2: During the hang the CPU utilization goes to 100%. I've tried using Firebug but I can't seem to find any way to break out of the loop, if loop it is (you have to insert the breakpoint before execution hits that point, and once the page loads the CPU is too busy to run Firebug).
