        <h1>iFrame memory leak prevention test (void)</h1>

        <p>In IE up through version 8 adding an iframe to a page and
        removing it produces a memory leak in some cases.  The pattern
        seems to be that iframes that display an image produce leaks.
        In IE7 that memory is not reclaimed when the top page unloads.
        In IE8 the memory is usually mostly reclaimed when the top page
        unloads.</p>

        <p>This is a test for a method that cleans iframes before
        removing them to avoid this memory leak.  This prevents a leak
        in certain cases - for example, when loading <a
            href="//google.com/">//google.com/</a> in an iframe.
        Unfortunately there are cases where it does not help, such as <a
            href="//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_leak">//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_leak</a>.</p>

        <p>To run the test, click one of the buttons below and watch
        the browser memory usage as frames are added and removed.</p>
