Re: Recursion problem with Firefox

It's a processor bug (if it hits some memory limit it ought to fail
rather than just give the wrong answer) so you'd need to report it to
their bugzilla system.
I've submitted Bugzilla Bug 314985 for this.

It is reproducible, although oddly the version of your stylesheet as
appears in the archives is not well formed:

*  every declaration of the xhtml namespace  is followed by a spurious ";"
   (incidentally you don't need most of those declarations)

*  the text
   This is my input file (abbreviated):
   appears _before_ /xsl:stylesheet not after it.

Neither of these problems appears to be in your original mail, so the
list archives mail-to-html filter seems to have been confused.


You say

But what can be limited to less than 5k ?

It's a processor bug (if it hits some memory limit it ought to fail
rather than just give the wrong answer) so you'd need to report it to
their bugzilla system. I doubt it has anything to do with file _size_
but rather with recursion depth. Your template is a non-tail recursive
template and presumably you hit some stack overflow around 60 level of
recursion (which seems rather low, but in practice most systems will
have _some_ finite  limit on recursion stack).
