If you try to type accented Spanish characters into Google Docs, the current Firefox window display will freeze and will not change - although you can still close it. Other windows are not affected.

I didn't do anything to it, but it works now. I was typing the characters using a spanish layout keyboard by typing apostrophe + the letter.

How are you typing the characters?

Does it also happen if you use the compose key (compose ~ and n: ñ) or paste such a character?
