TypeError: node is null message=node is null

The following error message occurs in Firefox 3 when using Firebug. TypeError: node is null message=node is null The error can be tracked back to script tags being in the head of the document instead of where they’re needed, an example would be with the ShareThis control/component that is often added to blogs and etc.
