Yes. What I imagine you're missing is the actual assertion of the capabilities you granted. For any javascript code to actually use any of those capabilities, the function it's in or a calling function needs to have called: netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege(capstr); where capstr is a string containing a space-separated list of the capabilities you need your code to have (like "UniversalBrowserRead UniversalFileRead ..."). Our solution was to hook into the kickoffNextCommandExecution method in the TestLoop like so: testLoop.reallyKickoffNextCommandExecution = testLoop.kickoffNextCommandExecution; testLoop.kickoffNextCommandExecution = function () { netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalBrowserRead UniversalFileRead UniversalBrowserWrite UniversalBrowserAccess"); return testLoop.reallyKickoffNextCommandExecution(); } (that is done in our SeleneseRunner.html equivalent, right before testLoop.start().) Normally that enablePrivilege call would make a dialog pop up asking the user if that script should be allowed to have those capabilities, but the "granted" line in our user.js tells Mozilla [Firefox] to always grant those permissions without asking. -- paul _______________________________________________ Selenium-users mailing list Selenium-users@lists.public.thoughtworks.org http://lists.public.thoughtworks.org/mailman/listinfo/selenium-users
