Tom, I have found the solution of the problem.
yes, I am checking the value of rv after each call of
AddCategoryEntry. And It was returning succes. And then I installed a
tool Component Viewer(Which you only told me ) And I found that my
component was not registered properly.
So I made one change in the AddCategoryEntry Function. I made 2nd and
3rd parameter same.
Initially my code was like this:
rv = catman->AddCategoryEntry("content-policy","WebLock",
WebLock_ContractID,PR_TRUE,PR_TRUE,&previous);
And I changed it to
rv = catman->AddCategoryEntry("content-policy",WebLock_ContractID,
WebLock_ContractID,PR_TRUE,PR_TRUE,&previous);
And it started working for me. and now I am getting the notifications
for each site I visit. But I do not understand why was it not working
when 2nd and 3rd parameter were different.
Your suggestions have been very helpfull for me. Yea, initially I was
using Netscape 7.0 and then You told me it is not going to work for
7.0 because it is built on Mozill 1.0.
Thanks for your suggestions once again.
