Since you're parsing it as XML, you should let the parser know that your
elements are HTML. This is done by specifying an appropriate (XHTML) namespace.
Also if you go that route, you ought to be calling adoptNode before appending
the parsed tree to the tab's document, see http://www.w3.org/DOM/faq.html#ownerdoc
And, not selectedTab, but gBrowser.contentDocument.
If you wish to print HTML code, it probably would make more sense to use
document.open / document.write

OK, so I have this to create a new, empty tab and then insert content:
var wm = Components
.classes["@mozilla.org/appshell/window-mediator;1"]
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIWindowMediator);
var win = wm.getMostRecentWindow("navigator:browser");
win.gBrowser.selectedTab = win.gBrowser.addTab("about:blank");
var content = "<html><body><p>hello, wurld</p></body></html>";
var dom = new DOMParser().parseFromString(content, "text/xml");
win.gBrowser.selectedTab.appendChild(dom.documentElement);
The string-to-DOM code works fine, but nothing appears in the new tab
after executing the appendChild() call. Should I call this on some
child or parent of win.gBrowser.selectedTab?
Thank you again,
