<p>为了提高内存使用效率以及防止内存泄露，Firefox 浏览器不允许插件在 DOM 所在的父页面被销毁后对 DOM 对象保持强引用。死对象指的是在 DOM 被销毁后依然持有对 DOM 元素的强引用(处于活跃状态)。为了避免这样的问题，对处于外部文档中的 DOM 节点的引用应该被存储于一个专属于那个文档的对象当中，并且在文档卸载的时候将其清理，或者使用<a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Language_Bindings/Components.utils.getWeakReference">弱引用</a>方式进行存储。</p>

<p><a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Language_Bindings/Components.utils">Components.utils</a> offers a <code>isDeadWrapper()</code> method, which privileged code might use.</p>

<pre class="brush: js">if (Components.utils.isDeadWrapper(window)) {
  // dead
}</pre>

<p>Unprivileged code has no access to Component.utils and might just be able catch the exception.</p>

<pre class="brush: js">try {
  String(window);
}
catch (e) {
  console.log("window is likely dead");
}</pre>
