But that wasn't what the OP wanted to achieve: he wanted to edit the documents inside the browser (at least that's what I read from his mail) and this is what I don't recommend. Of course you can use the browser as a "launch pad" for the documents and so don't have the problems I talked about but I thought it's too trivial to mention it. Unfortunately that isn't "embedding OOo into Mozilla XUL environment" as requested.
