Hi,

I am developing a web application using php and python. After updating the Firefox to the latest version 30.0, some functions on my app do not work anymore. I checked the change logs of Firefox and found out this change: "Disallow calling WebIDL constructors as functions on the web" caused the issue on my tool.

So how can I fix this on the browser side since I cannot change the codes immediately right now?

Also a suggestion: Please reverse this change on the next update of this browser since this will affect my users or else I have to greatly change the codes.

Thanks
