That won't work, apparently - XMLHTTPRequest overwrites the notification callbacks you set. It looks like it forwards the progress notifications somewhere though - try setting an "onprogress" listener on the xmlhttprequest.
Hi Christian thanks for this,
"onprogress"? I didn't know there was such a DOM event? Do you know what the DOMString is? I have got it to work with "load" but it doesn't like "progress":
var listener = {
handleEvent: function( event ) {
dump( "\n" +event.target );
}
}httpRequest.addEventListener("load", listener, true);This works as expected.
You could of course use Necko directly.I take it you mean implement my own channel/protocol handlers? That sounds like quite a bit of work, so if this works I'll go with that
Do you know why XMLHTTPRequest overwrites the notification callbacks? I looked in http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/extensions/xmlextras/base/src/nsXMLHttpRequest.cpp and couldn't see anything obvious.
Cheers,
