This is great - thanks for the info/link!
Does anyone have any examples of how I can use JavaScript to invoke certificate dialogs now?
e.g. the following JavaScript doesn't work - did I miss something somewhere?
function TestMe() {
netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalXPConnect");
var cmgr = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/nsCertificateDialogs;1"].getService();
cmgr = cmgr.QueryInterface(Components.interfaces.nsICertPickDialogs);
var Ir = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/dom/window-controller;1"].getService();
Ir = Ir.QueryInterface(Components.interfaces.nsIInterfaceRequestor);
var Intf = Ir.getInterface("{51d59b08-1dd2-11b2-ad4a-a51b92f8a184}",Intf);
var cert;
cmgr.PickCertificate(Intf,"","",1,cert,"","");
}
My error message is about the var Intf=...line :
Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Could not convert JavaScript argument arg 0 [nsIInterfaceRequestor.getInterface]" nsresult: "0x80570009 (NS_ERROR_XPC_BAD_CONVERT_JS)" location: "JS frame :: testjs.html :: TestMe :: line 12" data: no]

I think it's a base component, but I'm not sure. The references are : Contract ID - @mozilla.org/security/x509certdb;1 Class ID - {da48b3c0-1284-11d5-ac67-000064657374}
You can verify that's available on a specific version of browser with the XPCOM component viewer available at : http://www.hacksrus.com/~ginda/cview/
Once the component viewer is installed, you can access the api of the component by right clicking on the interface of the component.(to use the component viewer : Tools--> web development--> component viewer)
I hope it will help you,

I am looking for a way to automate key recovery for end entity certificates in Netscape/Mozilla browsers with the P12 blob coming down from a server. Seems an XPCOM component scripted via JavaScript may do the trick - or am I better off trying this via JSS?
Has anyone tried this yet?
I am new - any help/pointers would be most appreciated.
I saw a post from Rodrigue Butaye ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) a fews days back about a x509certdb component but cannot discover what it refers to - any information of readily available components in pre-built binaries would be fantastic.
