Attachment: XML example file associated with an XSL stylesheet that crashes the browser

When this file is opened in a browser with the XSL stylesheet located in the
same directory, a form with an input file field is displayed.
When you try to close the browser or to navigate to another URL, the browser
crashes.

To be sure that the browser freezes or crashes, make the following steps :

1. browse to the URL : http://www.xml-campus.ch/didactique/coursXMLDev/test.xml
2. try to close the browser, it should crash
   OR try to reload the page with F5, it should also crash

the page is missing, but there is a testcase.
