User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1
In the following code the burp div does not turn green in Firefox 1.5.0.1 for OS X. In Safari the div does turn green. If you remove st.length then Firefox is able to successfully get a match on script tag with id "bbb".
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var st = document.getElementsByTagName("script");
st.length;
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" id="bbb">
var scriptTags = document.getElementsByTagName("script");
for(var i=0;i<scriptTags.length;i++) {
if(scriptTags[i].id && scriptTags[i].id.match(/bbb/)) {
window.addEventListener("load",
function(){
document.getElementById("burp").style.background="green";
},
false);
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="burp">Burp</div>
</body>
</html>
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load html document in the details section. Look, no green!
2.
3.
Actual Results:
no green div background
Expected Results:
green div background

(In reply to comment #2) > Created an attachment (id=215771) [edit] > sequence of scripts reversed If you reverse the sequence of scripts then things probably appear to be ok in this example. However they are not. The second time you try to use any variable that holds document.getElementsByTagName("script") you run into problems. At least I found that to be the case. - Peter
