I tried the tutorial again. This time the tutorial is much clearer. However, I found out a few things that could improve this tutorial:
* Fixed some spelling errors
 
* A link to [http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XULRunner XULRunner runtime package] and mention that they have to download this package to run applications using XULRunner
 
* There shouldn't be spaces before <b><?xml version="1.0"?></b>, it gives an error (see below):
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin/" type="text/css"?>
 
<window id="main" title="My App" width="300" height="300"
xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul">
<caption label="Hello World"/>
</window>
</pre>
Should be:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin/" type="text/css"?>
 
<window id="main" title="My App" width="300" height="300"
xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul">
<caption label="Hello World"/>
</window>
</pre>
* Error that was given:
[[Image:Error.png]]‎
*I managed to get a hello world application running with XULRunner, however, I missed out downloading the XULRunner runtime package. As this was the first time running a XULRunner application (with no background knowledge in XULRunner/XUL - perfect candidate to test your XULRunner tutorials), I had to browse around and figure out why the application wasn't running.
