User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040614 Firefox/0.9 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040614 Firefox/0.9 I had seen this problem mentioned on mailing lists as far back as 1999, but it still appears to be an issue. Any Javascript document.write() statement within an XSL file will crash Mozilla on newer builds. I tried it on some older builds and they simply just showed a white screen. I was sure to use the recommended xmlns as mentioned on the Mozilla XSLT Page ( http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform ) Example Code: -- <?xml version='1.0'?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes" method="html" /> <xsl:template match="test" name="test"> <html> <head></head> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> <![CDATA[ //the alert works fine //window.alert( 'Hello World' ); //crashes mozilla everytime document.write( 'Hello World' ); ]]> </script> </body> </html> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> -- You can see an example of this in action here (WARNING: Crashes Mozilla): http://shirtconcepts.com/brendon/bugzilla/examples/xslJSDocWrite/main.xml Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a simple XSL File with html body and a script block within the body 2. Use a document.write() statement within the script block 3. Link XSL file from XML file and open it Actual Results: Mozilla crashes Expected Results: Display the text from a document.write() statement
