In MSIE, simply pressing the "Stop loading page" button will do this, even after the page is fully loaded. In Firefox, the button is 'greyed out' after the page is loaded. I would like to see the functionality added to STOP animated GIFs. Thank you. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Load any page with animated GIFs. 2. 3. Actual Results: Annoying animated GIFs Expected Results: STOP button should cause animation of GIFs too STOP, as in MSIE
