Unresponsive Script Error in Firefox Using Gmail

Started by Jason Clarke · 3 months ago

Gmail has been driving me crazy ever since upgrading to Firefox 1.5, particularly when trying to send a relatively large attachment. One of Gmail’s best features is the ability to send attachments that are up to 10 MB in size, but uploading a file of that size simply takes some time. ... Continue reading »

    I was glad to find this out... I'm using version 2.0 of FireFox but was running into the same problem. Though I'm happy I know now another way to tweak the browser, there seems to be a problem with Gmail. I'm getting the "unresponsive script" error when attempting to reply to an email that doesn't have any attachments. I hit reply and the thing goes catatonic. I will continue my search for a solution for the moment... but I just wanted to thank you for the post. :-)

    THANKS!

    I was getting so fed up with the sluggish unresponsiveness. I was going to throw my girlfriend's computer out the window!

    Yes - I am getting "unresponsive script" error replying to mail in Gmail under Firefox 2 also. Wonder why?

    i also made the adjustment to 60 seconds and now my computer freezes for a full minute before i get the error message... so i switched back to 10 seconds, that way at least it's frozen for 10 instead of 60 seconds.. will keep looking for the solution..

    I just narrowed it down and fixed it for myself:

    1. I had installed CalGoo 0.3 (google calendar program) today.
    2. I began experiencing the user script error only after installation.
    3. I had the error message on google searches only when I was signed in to my personalized Google site.
    4. I disabled add-ons until I found that one add-on: Google Calendar Quick Add - was causing the problem.

    I propose that, at least for some users, the interaction between CalGoo and Google Calendar Quick Add is causing the issue.

    Solution to my previous post:

    Get the updated version of the Firefox add-on called Google Calendar Quick Add. Earlier versions of the add-on caused this error.

    I found this to be a problem with outdated AdBlock Plus lists.
    I fixed it by going to the AdBlock Plus Preferences and right clicking the subscriptions, and choosing "update".
    Now my mails will open again without having to go to the "basic HTML" setting of Gmail.

    Yeah, Adblock Plus was the cause for me as well - I right-clicked and updated the EasyList subscription and now my Gmail works fine.
