OK. So you have an nsIWebBrowser, right?
For which I considered the design would be (and please correct me if I m
wrong):
1. Invoke a method in nsIDocumentLoader with the URL to get back the
content
type and the
DocumentLoaderFactory that would handle that content type
2. Invoke the CreateInstance method on this Factory to get the Content
Viewer and Stream Listener
3. And finally embed this Content Viewer in a ContentViewerContainer to
load
the document.
Er... if you really want to make yourself work hard, then maybe. The right way
to do what you want is to just get the nsIWebNavigation for your browser and
tell it to load the URI.
So, for Boris's first question I would need
1. getService() call on nsIDocumentLoader (and I guess it would be on
the root window because I
am
interested in only a single window)
No, if you getService a docloader it'll be the root docloader. Root window
docloaders would be kids of it.
3. The assumption I made here is that a document embedded in a Content
Viewer is as good as
the one that gets displayed ....... in other terms it is the window
itself....
Not unless the content viewer is embedded in a docshell...
