Let's say you're starting to enter text in an input element and autocomplete appears. Then you change focus to a different input element (not with tab), and, voila, you get 2 errors

1) Permission denied to get property XULElement.popupOpen
2) Permission denied to set property XULElement.selectedIndex

Here is the complete error message

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Let's say you're starting to enter text in an input element and 
2. autocomplete appears
3. change focus to a different input element (not with tab; let's say you've assigned keycode 'up arrow' to select the input element above)
Actual Results:  
2 error messages

Expected Results:  
No error messages (like EVERY other browesr!)

Comment 1

[Joshua]

there is a workaround: turn autocomplete off on the input element

[Nochum Sossonko [:Natch]]

I get this error occasionally on gmail... not sure if it's the same thing though.
