I built an application the other day loosely based on a script I found at dhtmlgoodies.com.  It's worked fine all weekend while I was building it and then I went to use it at work today and it started to suck big time.  I realized it wasn't just my script but the original demo app does it too at: http://www.dhtmlgoodies.com/scripts/image-crop/image-crop.html

I'm using firefox 2.0.0.12 at both home and work.

At work on firefox, I can't seem to use the drag/resize and it actually sucks-up close to 100% of my CPU processing, even when idol. 

IE 6 and 7 are both fine on both my home and office computers


What happens when you use it?

Thanks!!!

Seems to work, except that it says ImageMagick isn't installed so I don't get any meaningful results (just a demo image)

thanks!
i narrowed down the problem to a javascript that was running every 2-miliseconds in a hidden div.  It was a problem at work because my crappy computer could processes the looped task so frequently.
When I modified the script to not run that process it solved my problem.

IIRC certain versions of FF had a bug that caused delays in scripts to not run for the full amount of time.  Something like it'd wait 2 milliseconds instead of 2 seconds.
