Bug #53387 PHP Documentation pages cause FF to hang

Description:
------------
I'm experiencing an issue viewing the PHP Documentation pages in FireFox 3.6.6.

I can browse the PHP.net website OK, but as soon as I visit any documentation page FireFox seems periodically hang until I either close the tab or navigate to another tab in the browser.

Obviously this is stopping me using the manual pages :(

I did think it was an issue with my plug-ins/add-ons, but I have disabled them all and the problem persists.

Any ideas?

Cheers.

What mirror are you using to access the pages?  Does it work better if you try a 
different mirror?  Does it work better if you use a different browser?

I was using uk.php.net, but tried uk2.php.net, uk3.php.net, www.php.net and the problem was still there in FF.

> Does it work better if you use a different browser?

Safari seems OK.
Chrome seems OK.
IE seems OK.

This sounds more like it may be a localized Firefox issue than anything.  I'm 
able to navigate any page of any mirror I choose using Firefox 3.6.12 on Linux.  
You may want to try upgrading, and - if that doesn't work - submit a bug report 
to the Mozilla Firefox project.

I was having a similar issue with Firefox 3.6.13 on Mac OS X 10.5.8 and narrowed the issue down to a Firefox Add-on Operator 0.9.5.6. As soon as I disabled it the PHP Manual pages loaded without issue.

Reported the issue in Bugzilla:

Whaat.. When I used to use Firefox I used Operator and it never caused me any 
issues. Operator is pretty much the only extension that can use all our pretty 
markup :]
