Firefox 3.5 does not allow xbl files except from chrome?

[StefanoC]

Switched to 3.5 final and all my pages using

-moz-binding: url(file.xml#binding)

or

-moz-binding: url(http://samewebsite/file.xml#binding)

are not "working" anymore (they used to); all bindings to chrome://
still work fine.

as always when a problem with XBL arises, the binding element is made
hidden

is that a bug, a feature, or is there something i'm all of a sudden
missing here?
any idea?

thanks a lot,
Stefano

Can you point to a specific example? This should be working as long as
the stylesheet, binding file, and document being bound are all on the
same host (for the http:// case)....

mmmmh, i do not know what changed, but it is working again now.
Maybe I uninstalled some extension that was causing a problem? Some
change in about:config? I couldn't say. I've being pretty hard-core
with my poor FF today because of the "A script on this page has been
stopped due to a low memory condition." bug.

I apologize for not being able to provide any proof or the conditions
that caused that, though I'm 100% sure that the same exact example was
not working this afternoon.
If I manage to reproduce the problem I'll post here again.

thanks,
Stefano
