How do I know if "http-on-modify-request" is for top level window?

[Chris Shearer Cooper]

I have code that is successfully getting notified for "http-on-modify-
request", but there are a couple of problems.

1) I get notified for everything the page does - all the scripts, all
the icons, etc. How can I tell which request is for just the top
window (the one that shows up in a tab)?

2) Sometimes I don't get the matching "http-on-examine-response",
which seems odd. Is there another observer I can install during the
"http-on-modify-request" that will definitely let me know when the
http request/response is done?

Thanks!
Chris

Hello.

1) You should check channel.flags

for any documents: LOAD_DOCUMENT_URI
for top level documents: LOAD_INITIAL_DOCUMENT_URI

something like this
if (channel.flags & nsIChannel.LOAD_INITIAL_DOCUMENT_URI) {
...
}

2) You also should install "http-on-examine-cached-response" observer.
