I ran into this XUL error. Used build 2001022605 to latest one on NT4

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code:
0x80004005
       (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)[nsIMenuBoxObject.activeChild]" nsresult: "0x80004005
       (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"location: "JS Frame :: <unknown filename> ::
onxblcreate :: line 5" data: no]
Source File:
Line:  0                                  Column:   0

Reproducable 100%
1 - activate JS console
2 - load testcase
3 - show/hide/show
4 - now click on the second menulist
5 - take a look at your JS Console for the error

Oops used the wrong mimetype for the first one.  The second one is Ok.
BTW can we use "application/vnd.mozilla.xml-xul" in bugzilla?? This also blocks
my work for # 46029 and # 70805. I hope you can help me with this one really soon.
Heck my first two projects and wham... HELP

First error is gone in latest build. The problem with that <textfield> is still
the same.

Sounds like the original problem is gone, but there is some secondary problem
with input in textfields.  If so, please don't morph this bug, close it as wfm
and open a new one against the editor.  If the textfield problem is just another
case of the same bug, please clarify steps to reproduce.

Nope, there's no error in the console for the textfield testcase. So I will
close this one and open a new one. Seems to be more specific. Tnx for the advice.
