Re: [Xsltforms-support] Trouble with setvalue in Firefox

[Alain C. <ala...@ag...>]

Hello Tim,

I have tested with both Firefox 52.0 and Firefox 54.0a and I can easily 
reproduce this crash creating just 5 or 6 items.

It might be due to memory management but, unfortunately, using the 
browser debugger does not help at all to locate this issue.

I have discovered that it is possible to run Firefox in safe mode which 
means, at least, no activated plugin, no theme and no hardware acceleration.

Surprisingly, I cannot reproduce this crash in safe mode! Actually, my 2 
browsers did not already have any plugins so I just tried back with or 
without hardware acceleration: crash again.

Using another theme did not change anything (crash again) but, at least, 
the one I activated proposed to send a crash report to Mozilla 
Foundation while the default one never did...

I am, of course, still perplex. You might try with a much lighter 
subjects2.xml file but, because it is well supported by IE11, this 
should not be the reason for the trouble.

BTW, the value expression for the setvalue action is not correct in your 
test case: it should be "instance('subjects')/category/subject[@name = 
current()]/@uri".

Thank you for your feedback!
