Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.9) Gecko/20050711 Firefox/1.0.5

We have page with tag like following.

<input id="inp" type=text onclick='alert("This script error?.");'; >

It should not raise error in javascript console like this.

Error: [Exception... "'Permission denied to get property 
XULElement.selectedIndex' when calling method: 
[nsIAutoCompletePopup::selectedIndex]"  nsresult: "0x8057001e 
(NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)"  location: "JS frame :: <unknown filename> :: 
onclick :: line 0"  data: no]

Netscape/7.2 (ax) and IE 6.0 do correctly.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.just click the input text -> <input id="inp" type=text onclick='alert("This 
script error?.");'; >

Actual Results:  
raise error in java console as 

Error: [Exception... "'Permission denied to get property 
XULElement.selectedIndex' when calling method: 
[nsIAutoCompletePopup::selectedIndex]"  nsresult: "0x8057001e 
(NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)"  location: "JS frame :: <unknown filename> :: 
onclick :: line 0"  data: no]

Expected Results:
