I have added the following test case to the document which is used to
test label() and xpath():
---
<p class="both_label_and_attribute_editor">Tests interaction between
label and attribute editor.</p>
---
---
p.both_label_and_attribute_editor {
background-color: rgb(220,255,220);
margin-top: 0;
}
p.both_label_and_attribute_editor:before {
display: block;
margin-top: 1.33ex;
content: "dir=" label(xpath, "@dir")
" \2190 dir: " text-field(attribute, dir)
" \2192 dir=" label(xpath, "@dir");
background-color: rgb(220,255,220);
color: gray;
}
---
where p is simply an XHTML paragraph.
I have followed your instructions very precisely (using XXE V2.11 and
V3.0, with Java 1.4.1_07 and 1.5.0_04, Metal LAF, on Linux
2.6.11.4-20a-default, mwm, SuSE 9.3) and didn't manage to reproduce the
problem.
Note that using text-field() instead of value-editor() could not make a
difference.
The bug certainly exists but the above test case seems to be not close
enough to what you do in order to reproduce it.

What is "Reload Stylesheet"? Normally, it is "Style | [current
stylesheet name]" which can be used to reload current style sheet.
