I'm writing an extension[1]. The user selects a tab (which I remember)
and I would like it to write to exactly that tab's Firebug Console if
it is active.
During activation, I get and store the current window like so [2]:
var contentWindow = Components.classes['@mozilla.org/appshell/
window-mediator;1']
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIWindowMediator);
remotecontrol.controlledWindow = wm.getMostRecentWindow(
'navigator:browser'
).getBrowser().contentWindow;
So now that I have contentWindow, is it possible to print to exactly
that window's console? How? Firebug.Console.log writes to what happens
to be the current window now, not my stored contentWindow.
I find it challenging to find the definition of Firebug.Console.log
(searching for "log" or "Console" gives very many hits!) and I don't
understand what a "context" is, which makes it uphill.
Thank you for reading this far.
Peter
