Javascript interpretation in the URL box doesn't work any more.
Firefox was updated on my computer yesterday, 8/18/11. The feature that permitted Javascript be copied into the URL-finding box and run no longer works.
I notice the error on http://www.ironsudoku.com/. The following Javascript is supposed to put little green numbers into the empty cells:
javascript: void((function() { if(window) { var js=document.createElement("SCRIPT"); js.src="http://www.brittlefish.com/code/isie.js"; document.getElementsByTagName("HEAD")[0].appendChild(js); setTimeout(fn=function() { try { gautofill(); } catch(e) { setTimeout( "fn()", 10 ); } } , 1 ); } } )())
It doesn't work since the Firefox update. Other people have remarked on the same issue.

This was an intentional change to prevent some attacks that tricked users into pasting malicious JavaScript into the address bar: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=656433
You can still run JavaScript snippets by pasting them in the built-in Web Console.
I think that it should also be working as a (keyword) bookmark with the JavaScript set as the location.
