Large Wikipedia Pages cause Zotero to Choke or at least hiccup
My son is completing a 9th grade biblio which includes several wikipedia articles. He's on a mac and I'm on a pc.
When creating a New item from the Current Page
on several larger wikipedia articles like Hillary_Rodham_Clinton Zotero generates the following Warning in Firefox:
A script on the page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, open the script in the debugger, or let the script continue.
It then displays three buttons:
Stop script
Debug script
Continue
Some pages like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama generate errors on his mac, but not on my pc.
Pressing the Continue, sometimes more than once, ultimately leads to a successful Zotero creation of a new item.
Any ideas on what's happening here and how to repair it?
