Hi,

Okay I took a look and I'm getting the same result as you. It appears that
the problem revolves around Firefox's inability to conform to the standards
set forth by the W3C. Not surprising since they still have a handful of
security and SSL standards open in Bugzilla. Anyways, to get this to work
get rid of all your <s: tags, the ones that define elements and complex
types. Then in your <message tags remove the <part tags that rely on the <s
tags and define your arguments there instead. Basically you need to model
this:

Then you should be all set. Good luck! Ken.
