Overview Description: Steps to Reproduce: 1) add appendSource function to Node prototype object (per article news://news.mozilla.org/379D091F.1B5170B8%40meer.net referenced in bug 9201) 2) create a node 3) call the appendSource method of that node Actual Results: Mozilla registers the exception "JavaScript Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Invalid pointer" code: "-2147467261" nsresult: "0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER)" location: "http://www.zapogee.com/~myk/tc9.html Line: 12"]" Expected Results: Mozilla creates a document fragment from the HTML source and makes it a child of the node Build Date & Platform Bug Found: 2000-01-21-08 Linux Additional Builds and Platforms Tested On: none Additional Information: Since I don't have much documentation on createContextualFragment besides the articles in the newsgroups I can't be sure this is a bug, but it sure seems like createContextual Fragment should work with a node regardless of whether it is currently attached to the current document's DOM.
