I noticed a JavaScript error on the "Add Comment" link for this answer. I've never seen the behavior on any other answer before, but clicking the link produces the following error in Firebug:

w.find("textarea").charCounter is not a function 
var vote=function(){var l={informModerat...t.documentElement.scrollTop}}})(jQuery);

Because of the error the comment frame never displays and a comment cannot be posted.

Update

Sorry I didn't mention it initially... I receive the error in Firefox 3.5.7. I do not receive the error in Chrome or Internet Explorer 8.

Update 2

Whatever the problem was, it has ceased now when I click that link. I have seen it approximately once more since I initially reported the issue, but it has been several weeks. If I see it again I'll update this post.

  • It's behaving for me in FF 3.57 on Windows 7. I'll do some more tests on my work computer tomorrow and see if I can figure out what happened.

no repro. Have you tried disabling all Firefox extensions / running in "safe mode"
