Permission denied to get property XULElement.selectedIndex

From Helpful

(..."when calling method: [nsIAutoCompletePopup::selectedIndex]")


This is an bug in firefox' autocomplete feature - in that this seems to happen when both the autocomplete and a user script access the same input field(verify).

The surest workaround is disabling it by adding an
autocomplete="off"
attribute to the input field.


It seems to have been around since 0.9.2 and still exist in 1.5; it seems slated to be solved in firefox 2.
