Details

There is a dialog in Firefox that triggers on this Unicode Chart page because
the script is running for so long. It says:

   A script on this page is causing mozilla to run slowly. If it continues
   to run, your computer may become unresponsive.

   Do you want to abort the script?

                                              [  Cancel  ]   [   OK   ]

where "Cancel" means "Abort the script" and "OK" means "Continue running the
script".

The buttons should be labeled "Abort" and "Continue", respectively.

Problem originally reported by Mark Davis on the Unicode mailing list.
mpt suggests:
  1. Changing "abort" to "stop"
  2. Naming the buttons "Stop Script" and "Continue"
This is fixed in trunk, no? (bug 145523).
Yep. Sorry.
