Hello,

  allow me to repost/syndicate Neil Deakin's blog
story titled "Huge XULPlanet.com Changes!". Here we
go:

  I haven't been posting much lately. That's because
I've been busy working on lots of big changes and
improvements on XULPlanet. Here are some highlights:

  * I have personally gone through every XUL tag,
attribute and property and combed through the XBL
bindings and C++ code that implement them, to ensure
that the element reference is complete and accurate.
  * A new Scriptable Object Reference lists objects
that are available to unprivileged JavaScript. This is
a work in progress and is mostly generated from the
XPCOM reference.
  * The element reference now lists inherited
attributes and properties along the side.
  * The element reference lists the types of most
attributes and properties as well as the return types
of methods.
  * The element reference now lists some common style
classes that can be applied to elements. These classes
work in at least the Classic and Modern themes and
should in others as well.
  * Two new sections about commands and command
updaters have been added to the XUL tutorial.
  * The tutorial sections on focus, and broadcasters
have been reworked.
  * Sidebars have been added to the reference pages
for better navigation.
  * Comments are now available on the XPCOM reference
and the new scriptable object reference.
  * An index of frozen interfaces has been added.
  * Components in the XPCOM reference now list all the
methods of all the interfaces that they implement. For
example, see the reference for the local file
component.
  * Interfaces now provide a cross reference of other
interfaces that refer to them, either via a property,
a method argument or a return type. For an example,
see the nsIRDFDataSource interface.
  * A bug where unscriptable properties were not
marked as such in the XPCOM reference is fixed.
  * The main page has been reworked a bit to make it
clearer as to what information is available.
