88362 - mozilla attaches erroneous chars to xml docs and style sheets

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 79983

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect)

Description

[Michael Liepert]

When an xml-file (the one of URL above was my example..) changes on the server
to a shorter content and the URL of that file is reloaded, 
Then mozilla (sometimes?) appends the chars at the end of the old content after
the end of the new content (to fill up to the old Content-Length).

This always results in a non-parsable XML doc, as additional chars after root
XML-element break the doc.

Leaving the URL, flushing the disk cache and reloading works: the newly read
content does not have the superficious chars at the end. But leaving URL and
"Debug->Flush Memory" or flushing the memory cache does NOT result in a correct
and parsable loaded XML content.

Similar effect occurs when I shorten an XSL-style sheet of an XML-file: shorter
XSL style sheet is broken until I leave the referencing XML-URL, flush disk
cache and reload.
