Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.
The mozbrowserlocationchange event is fired when a browser <iframe>'s location changes — it is fired every time navigation occurs.
