Ah, ok. I remember, that debian really had (still has?) a crappy firefox 
binary... This binary did not only crash with BXE, but also other JS 
based sites (like the lenya admin screen, for example). And it's hard 
enough to keep on track with the different releases from Mozilla 
(Firefox 0.9 and Mozilla 1.7 were practically unusable for BXE and I 
needed some time to figure *that* out ;) ).

I'd wish also, BXE would run on anything after Mozilla 1.4, but
while it's a better situation now with the Mozilla developement, then it 
was during 1.0 times, some bugs of Mozilla I just can't work around. I'd 
have to keep up very closely with the current Mozilla developement to 
detect such stuff early enough. But I just don't have the time for that, 
unfortunately.

But I'm sure Mozilla/Firefox will mature even more in the future and 
such glitches will happen less and less ;)

ok. As a rule of thumb, I can say that, if the browser crashes, it's a 
Mozilla bug, if it doesn't it's a BXE bug ;) (But as Firefox 0.9 showed, 
it doesn't have to crash to be a Mozilla Bug...)

Parse error ;)
