name() and local-name() in Firefox 3.6
|
| |
Hello, it seems to me, that a breaking change was made to the name() and local-name() XPath functions in Firefox 3.6. Now they return their result in lower case instead of upper case. Is that right?

Can an extension trigger an uninstall for another one?
|
| |
I have an extension where I foolishly chose a name instead of an ID for the em:id. I now need to change that. Experimenting, I find that I can trigger the install of an .xpi containing the newly named extension, but this then leaves the old one still installed. From an extension can I trigger the uninstall of the old version?... more »

We're try to work with a Firefox extension, Zotero. Zotero exposes an API to other extensions: Zotero.doSomething("foo"); You can get the Zotero object with a call to the Components object: var Zotero = Components.classes["@zotero.or g/Zotero;1"] .getService(Components.interfa ces.nsISupports) .wrappedJSObject;... more »

Replacing web content without changing the HTML
|
| |
Hello everybody, first of all I have to say that I just started digging into Mozilla and Firefox Development but I hope my questions aren't too dumb :) I'm used to work with JS, XML. On the other hand I have almost no idea of the Mozilla API. I did some tutorials to get started. However I couldn't find an answer for my question. So I decided to ask you guys.... more »

Execute code on extension uninstall
|
| |
Hi. I've read around the Web that the extension manager can be asked to check if an extension is about to be uninstalled (something about a 'toBeUninstalled' flag). Could anyone explain how to do so? I can't manage to access that flag.
