I have an application that works fine in both IE and chrome. I am guessing that the application reached a certain number of iframe that is why my javascripts on that iframe is not loaded.

Why to you need to nest iframes that much?

If you need to nest more deeply then you can disable the HML5 parser (pref: html5.parser.enable -> false) to see if that works.

I'm maintaining a legacy application which only worked on IE6 for the past years. I was wondering if mozilla implemented a limit on the number of nested iframe. Do you have any idea?

Thanks, cor-el!

I found out that after the 10th nested iframe, the next one won't load anymore.

Thanks!
