Prevent Firefox continue charging a site while disconnected
I have a question and would like to see if you answer. It turns out that there are certain behavior in Mozilla Firefox and I do not like is the following.
I am working offline network with a server that I have a virtual machine, and at the same there is a website that has some widgets that link to Facebook, Twitter and G+. The problem is that if I open the site with Chromium, when the browser detects that it can not load Facebook, G+ and Twitter then of course finish loading the rest of the content and stop.
But not Firefox. Firefox keeps trying, Loading, and the circle shows that is loading the page tab does not stop. This is me So if I'm honest annoying. No way to tell if Firefox can not load an element, not trying to follow?

dom.min_background_timeout_value is by default set to 1000 in the about:config page, depending on how the widget is loading, it should terminate after that time.
Can you please provide an example webpage, this will help further investigate what the element is using on that page that does not seem to time out.
Thank you!
I use KillSpinners. It won't solve the problem, but it will stop the page load after a time that you set.
Well, this method seems to work in some cases. I could not give you a test site because this happens when I'm offline. So, when I'm not connected to the Internet via cable or WiFi, and run the virtual machine with my test server.
In that server I have a website that loads in your Wordpress Widgets, Facebook and Twitter elements.
Thank you. Try with this extension and I tell them later.
