Hi Jürgen, first: "Mozilla Developer Network" is just the name of the online documentation at developer.mozilla.org.
second: don't try to embed Gecko into your application. Many have tried before and failed sooner or later. If you want to embed a browser, use Webkit or IE (depending on how you developed your application, e.g. in Qt it's really easy to embed Webkit). third: for your use case I don't think you even need to embed a web browser into your application. You could use a simple XULRunner application or even a regular Firefox with a (to-be-developed) special Add-On.
