Any help would be appreciated!

Firefox reloads the contents of iframes when they are "unhidden".

So, if you have a TabPanel, where each tab holds an iframe, moving
between tabs reloads the frame. Chrome and IE leave the frame alone,
but Firefox closes it when you hide it. For example, if you have a
youtube movie up in a frame on one tab, and move to another, the movie
keeps playing in the background in Chrome and IE (as it should). In
Firefox, the movie stops. And, when you return to the tab, Firefox
reloads the page, causing the movie to start over.

The fix for this in Firefox is to not "hide" the frame, but to make it
invisible by reducing its size to 0 when you click on another tab.

This seems like the type of legitimate JS browser-specific hack that
GWT's compiler is good for. Has anyone implemented this fix? How do
you even go about making this fix? Any other way to resolve the
problem that I don't know about?

Thanks!
