This website I manage http://stephenpusey.org has a simple javascript that causes Firefox Android browser to constantly refresh rendering the content of the pages inaccessible. This only occurs with the Android version of the browser - not with the desktop version. The default mobile browser and Chrome for Android do not have this behaviour and nor does Safari.

The javascript is: function winResize() { location.href=location.href; }

and is called on the web pages with 

onResize="winResize()

I would appreciate your comments or a remedy to this.
