Is it new behavior? "On the other hand, if an iframe is removed from a Document and is then subsequently garbage collected, this will likely mean (in the absence of other references) that the child browsing context's WindowProxy object will become eligble for garbage collection, which will then lead to that browsing context being discarded, which will then lead to its Document being discarded also. This happens without notice to any scripts running in that Document; for example, no unload events are fired (the "unload a document" steps are not run)." 52902 1 mike 2011-08-04 05:05:16 +0000 mass-moved component to LC1 60710 2 ian 2011-12-01 00:06:38 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
