Doh! Sorry about that. So is an XPCOM component an 'add-on'? Am I right in saying that an add-on and an extension are the same thing? i.e. they "plug into" mozilla and add new functionality to the browser?
Yeah, that sounds right.
Do you know if there is a similar scheme for XPCOM components as there is for plugins. That is, a scheme whereby the component can be installed prior to the browser, but still work with the browser if the browser is installed later?
I'm not aware of such a thing. That doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't exist, though :)
