Menu labels not showing

Hi, I've just copied this XUL from an example:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin/" type="text/css"?>

<window id="example-window" title="Example 5.1.1"
        xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
        xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul">
<toolbox flex="1">
  <menubar id="sample-menubar">
    <menu id="file-menu" label="File">
      <menupopup id="file-popup">
        <menuitem label="New"/>
        <menuitem label="Open"/>
        <menuitem label="Save"/>
        <menuseparator/>
        <menuitem label="Exit"/>
      </menupopup>
    </menu>
    <menu id="edit-menu" label="Edit">
      <menupopup id="edit-popup">
        <menuitem label="Undo"/>
        <menuitem label="Redo"/>
      </menupopup>
    </menu>
  </menubar>
</toolbox>


</window>

Thing is... when I run it locally it shows fine, when I run the example it works fine, but when I copy the file to my server space... the menu labels don't show. The menuitem ones do, but the 'File' and 'Edit' labels don't.

Any ideas?

Also, when I run my actual XUL system locally, I can call parent.function(value) and it works if that function simply alerts 'value'. But again, when I upload it to the server, zilch, will not call that function. Don't know what the javascript console said, as I've removed that bit before looking.

Any more ideas?

Works fine for me;

Code:

<?php
header( "Content-type: application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml" );
?>
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin/" type="text/css"?>
<window id="example-window" title="Example 5.1.1"
        xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
        xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul">
<toolbox flex="1">
  <menubar id="sample-menubar">
    <menu id="file-menu" label="File">
      <menupopup id="file-popup">
        <menuitem label="New"/>
        <menuitem label="Open"/>
        <menuitem label="Save"/>
        <menuseparator/>
        <menuitem label="Exit"/>
      </menupopup>
    </menu>
    <menu id="edit-menu" label="Edit">
      <menupopup id="edit-popup">
        <menuitem label="Undo"/>
        <menuitem label="Redo"/>
      </menupopup>
    </menu>
  </menubar>
</toolbox>
</window>

Yeah, well like I said, it works in one place, then not in another. Doesn't matter now... I've given XUL a miss and just written my own menu class for javascript.
