I have the following architecture:

1. toolstrip with a button that loads a mole
2. the mole html (in extension folder) includes an iframe with the
link to the actual UI implementation hosted on an http server

The mole html includes chrome extension code to listen for tab
creation and updates, and needs to notify the doc in the iframe. I've
set document.domain in both my mole and my iframe doc to the same
domain (as described in section 13.8.2 of JavaScript: The Definitive
Guid, 5th Ed.) However, my mole cannot access JavaScript globals in
windows.frames[0].

Our UI implementation is hosted in order to deploy quick updates
without forcing reinstallation of the extension. It works this way for
our Firefox add-on and IE extension.

I need to listen to chrome extension events and dispatch them to
methods in the UI document. With my hosted UI in an iframe in a mole,
I cannot get it working.

If I load the hosted UI directly into a mole (from my toolstrip's
expand call), it shows up, but I have two problems: 1) I cannot set
the width (the iframe solves this) and 2) that document cannot use the
chome extension APIs.

thx
Michael
