Re: xforms build help

Ok, I just did a Firefox build.

I did it just like a mozilla build, other than I had to change these things:

1) Added ". $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig" as my top, 
non-commented line in .mozconfig
2) in my .mozconfig I changed MOZ_CO_PROJECT and --enable-application to 
be browser instead of suite
For example:
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=browser
ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
3)in addition to checking out mozilla/client.mk I checked out 
mozilla/browser/config/mozconfig.  THEN I did "cd mozilla" and then 
"make -f client.mk pull_all" followed by "make -f client.mk build".

and remember that you need: ac_add_options 
--enable-extensions="default,xforms,schema-validation" in your 
.mozconfig to build xforms.

After building, XForms worked for me just fine.

Please let me know if you still have problems.
