Reproducible: Always Steps to reproduce: 0. Have javascript.options.showInConsole set to true. Open up the JavaScript Console (Tools > JavaScript Console) and Clear all the errors. 1.

Open up the JavaScript Console (Tools > JavaScript Console,) and go to Errors. Actual Results: JavaScript Console showed multiple errors.

I've seen this on windows XP on a recent trunk build, so marking platform all. I thought maybe it had something to do with session restore, but this bug is from 2005-04-04, which is way before dietrich's work. see also: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=318168#c19 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=318168#c33 for some related information about this error.

Can you still reproduce this issue? I can't in Firefox 3.5.3, which is what I have open currently...
