Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I just applied new Firefox updates at home and at work and found in both cases that the Wordpress edit screens are totally borked. It doesn't happen on non-Ubuntu computers, though they also don't get updated so they may just be operating with older versions. It does happen in multiple Wordpress installs (maintained by different people, hosted on different servers)
I've been trying to sort out an explanation more compelling than "wordpress is borked" but I'm not sure what is going on. Wordpress uses a javascript "quicktags" toolbar. I begin writing or editing and then, poof, with no apparent trigger, the screen is gone and all that appears in the browser window is a single row of quicktags buttons.
I'm not sure *what* is going on here. I haven't spotted strange behavior outside of Wordpress, but this is pretty weird and pretty consistent.
