XML & CSS - 100% CPU Use?

[John McClure]

Hello,
When the below code is displayed by IE 6, I am seeing 100%
CPU usage, which won't go away. When I remove the PI for
the stylesheet, CPU usage drops back to zero once the
document rendered, but of course that means I have no CSS
styling. What's going on? It appears that a thread is
running wild.

This may have been answered before, and I missed the reply
to my earlier note. I can't seem to retrieve msgs for the
newsgroup that are older than a few days. If so, pardon me
for asking again.

Thanks,
John McClure

I wish it were that simple! This wild thread -- which
absolutely predictably uses 100% of the CPU -- occurs
whether href is there or not on the stylesheet PI. Anyway,
IE still renders it either way, so specifying it is only
important when multiple stylesheets are inside the root
element of the file.

Any other ideas? This is really bugging me!
Thanks,
John

It makes no sense to me.
I can't see anything wrong with your code other than putting spaces after
":"
It's what I've always done, you know, like "color: red" instead of
"color:red".
If it is this, then IE is more stupid than I thought.
Doubt it though....
It might be worth posting to microsoft.public.xml to see if they can sort
it.
