Anyone else having JavaScript crash Firefox?

(1/4) > >>

anphanax:
This has been in several versions and it doesn't appear to be getting fixed. I have sent those "quality feedback" things along with descriptions of what I was doing when it happened.

For some reason, JavaScript keeps crashing my firefox (I am up-to-date, 1.0.6). Certian pages (particularly advertiser's stuff) takes down the browser and it's really annoying.

Not bad enough to make me consider using MSIE again, but annoying enough to make me consider Opera.


Yes, i've tried browsing the web with JavaScript disabled. When you do that, you seem to run into lots of problems, since so many people think they need to use "javascript:" links.

EDIT: I tried re-installing, and no, i'm not considering IE. As for the linux comment, i've been trying linuxes out in a PC emulator :|. Right now i'm looking at DSLinux (Damn Small Linux) which doesn't seem to include a C/C++ compiler, yet comes with a Perl interpreter... (in other words, GCC was nowhere to be found).

worker201:
If you're considering IE, that means you have a Windows problem, not a Firefox problem.  This link should fix you up nicely.
