[WikiEN-l] technical Issue with Firefox 2.0 beta

The Firefox 2.0 beta is a superb engine for editing Wikipedia. Among 
other things, it features something web browsers have traditionally 
lacked -- an internal spell checker that actually works. the utility fo 
this for a wikipedia editor should be obvious -- it eliminates the 
neccesity to go to a second application for spell checking which would, 
in turn, foul up the wiki formatting.

However, this might be why Firefor 2 seems to crash when switching to 
the edit view on very large articles. Has anyone else had a similar 
experience when switching to edit view on a very large page?
