title: Blob createObjectURL download not working in Firefox (but works when debugging)
body: <p>I have an odd problem, the function below is one I created based on what i found on the net about creating a Blob in the client on the fly with some binary data in (passed as an array) and being able to download that. This works brilliantly in Chrome, but doesn't do anything in Firefox - UNLESS I debug and step through the code. Yes, oddly, if I create a break point inside the function and step through it, the a.click() will bring up the download window!</p>
  
  <pre><code>function downloadFile(filename, data) {
  
      var a = document.createElement('a');
      a.style = "display: none";  
      var blob = new Blob(data, {type: "application/octet-stream"});
      var url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
      a.href = url;
      a.download = filename;
      document.body.appendChild(a);
      a.click();
      document.body.removeChild(a);
      window.URL.revokeObjectURL(url);    
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anyone help me? This was tested using Firefox 38.0.5.</p>
