Re: component (extension) registration in firefox windows

[Srinivasa Raghavan]

Hi Vonuyx , Thanks for your information. I did what you said, but while executing regxpcom i see my component registered properly (i gave prints inside the constructor , which got printed in the console). And i saw my component information in the compreg.dat file also. But while executing firefox my component was not invoked. I tried to completely delete the profiles directory and made it to recreate. Eventhough my component was not invoked while launching firefox. Please do help me what i should do to invoke my component while launching firefox. Thanks & Regards Raghavan vonuyx wrote: Hello, You can do the following: 1. Copy the .dll and .xpt file into the components directory as you did, 2. Copy regxpcom.exe (from the gecko-sdk) in to the Mozilla Firefox directory (in your case: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox) 3. Run regxpcom.exe. Hope it could help.

I have created .dll and .xpt file and copied it to the components directory (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\components) Now i want to register it to the Firefox components directory. I have tried it to install by firefox.exe -register.   But it is not registered. How do i register the component in firefox ? What are the steps to do this? Please point me to some documents (if any). Thanks & Regards Raghavan --  "Buy what you want. Sell what you don't want. Use this portal, www.finepick.com <http://www.finepick.com>, for FREE.
