First thing this morning, I opened the page that first displayed the symptoms. The page worked. Bug gone. No changes at all. But that made me even more curious and just more than a bit scared.

So I opened Windows 7, FF, and jsfiddle, and then ran that code and the bug was once more visible. Hang on Linux, “Gah. Your tab just crashed.” on Win 7 Latest Firefox ESR.

Jsfiddle url is : JsFiddle showing faulty code it is literally the above code cut and pasted. All are x86_64 arch, all Firefoxes are ESR’s.

I will investigate a bit more and let you know. Perhaps it is an interaction with builtin pdf-viewer/youtube/plugin or something I will let you know if I discover root cause. Many Thanks.
