Allen,

I completely cleared all versions of firefox off my system (dear park 
1.4, firefox 1.5 beta 1, and the 1.6a1 builds), cleared out the whole 
mozilla folder in my Application Data/, removed any files not deleted in 
my Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/ (just deleted the folder)  and 
reinstalled from scratch and now it's working again.


Now that it's working I discovered another crasher.  I should probably 
write this up in bugzilla - but I've never written up a mozilla bug and 
it might take me a bit to figure out how (If you need me to I can figure 
it out and write it up this weekend).

The crasher is due to an error on my part (I'm trying to change the src 
of an instance to point to a different external file, but I was 
accidentally doing so before the page had loaded all the way).  However, 
instead of getting some sort of error in the js console, it was crashing 
firefox completely.



<head>
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="left_text_formstyle.css" />
	<xf:model>
		<xf:instance id="pagedata" src="left_text.xml" />
		<xf:submission id="save" method="put" action="values.xml" />
		
	</xf:model>


	<script type="application/x-javascript">
	function openFile()
	{
		var objInstance = document.getElementById( 'pagedata' );
		objInstance.setAttribute( 'src', 'values2.xml' );
	}
	
	openFile();
	</script>
</head>
