[firefox] puzzle demo: Security error: This operation is insecure

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Firefox rejects to run puzzle due to this line in puzzle.js:

  // Add the blocks.
  if (window.sessionStorage.loadOnceBlocks) {

with security error. 

(I started to explain it but I guess you're better in JS cross-domain handling 
than I am. ;=))

There is no security violation, this is actually a bug in Firefox.  We've seen 
this once before.  Restarting Firefox fixed it and we've never been able to 
recreate it.

I've wrapped the offending code in a try/catch, and that should take care of 
it.  Fixed in r1645.  Thanks!

Could you reference the related firefox bug report please?

Thanks for the fix!

Unfortunately we've only seen this once before, and restarting Firefox made it 
go away.  I didn't file a bug since I could not recreate the issue.  A search 
of Bugzilla did not reveal a match.

Given that some of my 100% reproducible crasher bugs (e.g. 261974) have been 
left unresolved in Bugzilla for ten years, I doubt that they'd jump on a 
non-reproducible one.
