Hi all -

I posted this message to the jslib list, but perhaps this is a more appropriate place - I've also figured out more about what I'm trying to do since then.

I'd like to generate an HTML DOM from a URL. I'm using xpcshell, so I don't have a document object of any kind. (I'm using Seamonkey 1.0 on MacOS X 10.3.9, if it makes a difference.) I thought the following would work:

var domServ = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/content/syncload-dom-service;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsISyncLoadDOMService); var ioServ = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/network/io-service;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIIOService);
var uri = ioServ.newURI("http://foo.com";, null, null);
var ch = ioServ.newChannelFromURI(uri);
domServ.loadDocument(ch, null);

I'm behind a firewall, and I've tried three cases: an existing site on the other side of the firewall; an existing side on the same side of the firewall; and a nonexistent site on the same side of the firewall.

When the site is on the other side of the firewall, the call to loadDocument() hangs. This doesn't surprise me, since I haven't done anything about proxies (I'll leave that question for later). The nonexistent internal site returns an empty document. The existing internal site generates an error:

uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsISyncLoadDOMService.loadDocument]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: typein :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 5" data: no]

So what am I doing wrong? And where's the most likely place to find help and guidance? I've been poking around xulplanet and mozdev, but I can't really find enough resources. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance -
