How to prevent a problen in ONE TAB from hanging ALL FIREFOX ?

more options

The problem is that a problem causing a hang in one tab can hangup all of firefox so I can't do anything. For example, an unresponsive script invoked by one tab (one website) causes all of firefox to stop running., and I can't use the mouse or keyboard to close the one tab causing the problem. Then I have to kill/restart firefox entirely. There should be a way to kill individual tabs without stopping all of firefox. Is there ?
