Too bad the specifications for windows didn't work for you and the site forums.tjworld.net doesn't respond at the moment. Let's hope the first how-to also works for cygwin. And that I can test drive the whole thing before having to buy a real certificate from a CA. Otherwise I think I'll drop the whole plan of making the extension configurable... Could someone please tell me what NSS stand for? On 4/25/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Is this code running inside an extension? If so, you'll have to sign the entire extension--not just a piece of javascript. The best "how to" on extension signing is by Pete: https://www.mozdevgroup.com/docs/pete/Signing-an-XPI.html with more detail, especially for Windows at: http://forums.tjworld.net/viewtopic.php?p=210 I've been through the latter directions and never was able to get it work, even after getting a code-signing cert from Unizeto Certum. ----- Original Message ---- From: Onno Ekker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Mozdev Project Owners List <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2007 11:27:36 AM Subject: Re: [Project_owners] Error reading preferences Yup, I noticed that too... That's because I typed in the mail without having the source at hand, so no copy/paste. In the source there is a " after errorfox.. I think the problem is cause by the way error pages are handled: the original uri stays in the location bar, so Firefox will probably think that the javascript is executed from that location and therefore won't allow access to user preferences. If that's the case it might help to sign the javacode, because signed javacode should always be able to read preferences. I think. Haven't ever signed java code before, so have to see if I can figure out how to do that (probably not with my pgp-key), how I can test it, and how I can package and distribute it when it's final...
