Close tab or X won't work. I had to put in a new URL but, of course, it asked me to confirm I wanted to leave. How do they code a page so you can't close the tab with that URL in there???

It only happened when I went to a website I'd never been to before. I just left it until I close Firefox shortly. I typed in a new URL so it's okay, but I'm curious if something was coded to make it happen. I might head over there again and look at source code. If I do, I'll post anything that looks weird
