My task is to write a Firefox extension which analyses URL requested
by the user and redirect the browser based on some criteria (say, if
the user enters http://server_.com, it redirects the user to http://server.com).
I think I know how to solve the first half of the problem (hooking and
analysing the url): I just redefine onStartURIOpen method of
nsIURIContentListener interface.
However I have no idea how to solve the second half (redirection). I
tried to do the following:
onStartURIOpen : function(uri)
{
if (redirectRequired(uri)) // redirectRequired is implemented by me
{
getBrowser().mCurrentTab.linkedBrowser.loadURI(newUrl);
return true;
}
return false;
}
however this results in calling onStartURIOpen over and over again.
Can anyone help me to implement redirection in my case?
