I orginally came across this problem when developing SVG (hence the SVG on the
site). The bug is demonstrated by the buttons in the 3rd frame which are meant
to change the content of the 4th frame. They do work for a start but then do
break after about 2 or 3 clicks. However the buttons located outside the frame
(at the bottom) continue to work adinfinitum. This behaviour works in Mozilla or
IE, but not in Firefox.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load the page.
2.Click on the "Green" and "Blue" buttons to change the pages back and forth
3.

Actual Results:  
The buttons in the frame stop working after a few clicks

Expected Results:  
The buttons should continue to work changing the 4th iframe.

If it worked in older builds, perhaps it was a regression in alpha2 that's fixed
in recent nightlies. Try upgrading?

Yes sorry... upgraded to latest nightly and it works. Invalidating.
