I have a disabled button I want to click with Javascript.
The following function works in Chrome but not in Firefox.
The problem with Firefox: Firefox javascript is too slow.
The button is still disabled if the code wants to click it. How to click the button when it is enabled?

function enable_and_click() {
    document.getElementById('button1').disabled=false;
    document.getElementById('button1').click();

    Try the following:

    document.getElementById('button1').removeAttribute('disabled');
    document.getElementById('button1').click();
    

    Update

    Using jQuery, a cross browser solution would be:

    var element = $('#button1');
    element.removeAttr('disabled');
    element.click();
