Re: QT3 viewer application

I should have mentioned another restriction: Saxon-JS does not yet work with Microsoft browsers (IE or Edge).

One limitation I'm aware of is that it can't handle files containing non-BMP characters (e.g. format-date). It doesn't attempt a complete rendition of every aspect of the test suite, but gives most of the information you need most of the time. Let me know of any issues (I don't promise to fix them).
