I have a working firefox extension that currently consists of a button. When I click that button, my XUL file declares oncommand="test();" which simply is an alert("hi!"); .
I am including the file like this:
<script type="application/x-javascript"
src="chrome://myfirstextension/content/resultscollector.js" />
the resultscollector.js file is right where it should be in \content , but this does not work.
But, when I simply move the file into another extensions content folder that I am testing, and change the URL I am accessing to reflect that (chrome://myotherfirstextension/content/resultscollector.js) - it works!
To add to the confusion, though both extensions show up under tools -> addons and view -> toolbars, and for that matter, on the actual toolbar, I can browse to chrome://myotherfirstextension/content/overlay.xul, whereas an attempt to browse to myfirstextensions' overlay file fails (the locationbar simply won't allow me to press enter).
If anyone can help with this, it would be greatly appreciated.
