I am sorry, but I found the code behind it interesting so posted it. I put it on jsfiddle! If you were smart enough, you could have accessed the html behind the page easily.

My point being, browsers should be able to recover from such code. What if some site's ad code has this in it. It shouldn't be able to crash my entire browser.

You should have posted a listing, not a working copy. That would have been the civilized, non-destructive thing to do.

I did. But if you were smart enough, you would have done that and avoided performing an unscheduled test of the less technically skilled visitors' browsers ability to handle broken code.

Why not set your car on fire? A modern car should be able to tolerate the flames, right? Where's your sense of adventure?

You just aren't thinking. This is a public forum visited by people representing all levels of skill.
