getting SyntaxError in Firefox when Facebook plugin is installed | ww.wp.xz.cn

I’m getting the following error when this plugin is installed:

SyntaxError: syntax error
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

This is preventing other javascript code from executing, and it only happens in Firefox. Is there a fix for this?

There is another post with similar issue:

The post is marked resolved, but clearly it’s not. Any help would be appreciated!

It’s a validation issue that should not be preventing execution of code. The Facebook plugin asynchronously loads the Facebook JavaScript SDK while still using the enqueue system of WordPress, as noted in the support thread you linked.

That’s what I thought too. But I have an event handler that fires when some images are loaded and it only works when the Facebook plugin is deactivated. Any idea what else in the plugin that could be causing this? The syntax error is the only error showing up in the Firebug console…

Once I switched to using the imagesLoaded jQuery plugin, it worked. Thanks!
