I am using FF 33.1.1 and bootstrap-multiselect 0.9.10. When I select an item in the list, and then hold shift to select the following few items FF pops up a blank page. I can reproduce this on an of the mutliselect examples. However, this functions fine in Chrome.

The cause seems to be a Firefox "bug".

I quoted the term bug since this is not really one. It is to be expected that shift-clicking a link opens it's href in a new tab. Chrome and Firefox are just behaving differently. From my understanding, there is no specifications formally written for this specific case.

I'll submit a pull request with a workaround soon.

-> Added a tabindex = 0 to keep the anchors focus-able
-> Added code to remove any text selection when using shift+click
-> Handles the checkbox selection manually when done using shift+click on its label
