XBL binding override
Damiano ALBANI
I'm trying to change the look and behavior of <progressmeter>s in
Firefox downloads window.
So, in the 'chrome.manifest' of my extension, I specified:
style chrome://mozapps/content/downloads/downloads.xul
chrome://download-skin/skin/override.css
Where 'override.css' contains :
progressmeter {
-moz-binding: url("chrome://download-skin/skin/
progressmeter.xml#progressmeter") !important;
}
progressmeter[mode="undetermined"] {
-moz-binding: url("chrome://download-skin/skin/
progressmeter.xml#progressmeter-undetermined") !important;
}
So far, the <content> part of my own <progressmeter> binding is used
(as shown on screen). However, it's not the case with the
<implementation>, which seems "ignored", as if it was still using the
one from the original binding.
What's the reason of this "issue"? How can I override an XBL binding
properly?
Thanks!

The script part of xbl is not executed inside the skin directory.
Iiuc, this is a security precaution, skins should not be able to execute
scripts or something like that.
So you need to put your xbl binding in a different directory to get that
working.

I think you'll need to put your XBL in chrome://download-skin/CONTENT/
if you want your code to run. Scripts are not allowed to run from /skin/

Thanks guys for your help, but even with *everything* put back in
"content/", there's still the same issue...
I just don't understand :-)

Could you provide and example or some code or a bit more explanation?
It might be difficult for people to anwer your question, because not
everything is known.

Sure.
My own XBL <progressmeter> binding file is : <http://
pastebin.mozilla.org/431992>.
As you can see, compared to the original binding (from which I
"started"), I only :
- changed the <content>,
- added a "debug-like" Components.utils.reportError() call in the
"value" setter.
The images of the <content> part display just fine. But none of the
setters/getters seem to get called. That's the part which is
mysterious to me :-)
Do you see what I mean?
Thanks,

Is this installed as an extension? Or as a theme?

Yes, it's an extension indeed.
