I'd agree. On a side note, took me about ten seconds of googling to find HTML/Javascript that reliably crashes firefox (but does not crash IE8). I expect Chrome would have similar cases where there could be something that causes crashes (at least, there are bug reports asserting this).
(FYI here's some HTML/JS for the Firefox bug... Resizing the browser caused the issue to manifest in Win7 with FF 13.0.1:)

(edited to acknowledge that this is a JS bug). And for the downvotes, at least provide a reason and/or a discussion.
- jonny_eh 14y agoWhile close, it's a bit different since JS is needed to crash the browser. The interesting thing about the IE bug is that no JS is required.

- kyberias 14y agoAre people really downvoting because you pointed out that other browsers have bugs too? Amazing!
- khuey 14y agoUh yeah, it's really easy to find code that crashes browsers with open bug trackers. Just go search them.
