Hi & thanks for your help - am trying to get toolbar in a testable state without going through with the whole installation procedure with XPI files etc... (partly I expect that procedure to be cumbersome and will need to be repeated lots during development, and partly I don't see a "de-install" heading anywhere) - so I'm looking at "installed-chrome.txt" for getting the thing going... I see a typical line in this file is:
locale,install,url,jar:resource:/chrome/cview.jar!/locale/en-US/cview/ it all seems to refer to java files and I understand these refer to an rdf file which refers to my xul file - I've given up on making sense of the documentation this evening - am I on the right lines so far?, do I need to create a jar and an rdf file to test my xul file? Also what is the syntax used in installed-chrome so that I can add to it? Is there a simple example I can crib from anywhere? TVMIA!!! :-) Tony -----Original Message----- From: Karsten D�sterloh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 05 January 2004 17:47 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: toolbars A.J.Brush aber hob zu reden an und schrieb: > At the moment getting a dummy toolbar there is proving difficult! > > the layout of my xul file is this > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> > <overlay id = "my overlay" > xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"> > <toolbar id="my bar"> > <toolbarbutton id = "mybutton" label = "my button" /> > </toolbar> > </overlay> (Are whitespaces allowed in IDs? Dunno, but I don't think so.) You have to specify the element to get the new content overlayed by you, e.g. the "navigator-toolbox" in the Mozilla main window: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <overlay id = "myOverlay" xmlns="...foo..."> <toolbox id = "navigator-toolbox"> <toolbar id = "myBar"> <toolbarbutton id = "mybutton" label = "my button" /> </toolbar> </toolbox> </overlay> The XulPlanet tutorial <http://www.xulplanet.com/tutorials/xultu/> is worth a read, especially <http://www.xulplanet.com/tutorials/xultu/crosspov.html>.
