This apparently is a bug in the code relating to Firefox's native

autocomplete functionality and can be worked around by adding the attribute

autocomplete="off" to the elements.

NOTE: This doesn't happen every time, it's a seemingly random occurrence.

For more detail on the problem, see this link:

I had similar problem before with jEditable.  As you said, fix was:

i.setAttribute('autocomplete','off');
