Re: A perfect DOM sandbox

Oh, now that I remember Firefox also executes event handles on
unappended nodes, so the parseHTML trick I used, doesn't work on
Firefox 3.6 anyways.. but that code was made like in 10 minutes, and
verified in browsers in like 5, so well..

I filed a bug about this a long time ago, and was marked as wontfix.
