Hi,
This might not be the right question for this mailing list, but i am unable to find a mailing list for XUL in Mozilla dev forums, hence posting the question here.
I am tring to create an XUL overlay that will create a button in the browser window.
Some function of the a button will be to allow the user to hilight text in any web page and click the button, so that i can get the contents of the button that the user has highlighted.
The problem I have is that in the _javascript_, the document referenced by
the document object is a XULdocument, not the browser window
document where the user has selected some text. Hence the
document.getSelection() doesnt do what I need.
Can anyone guide me to how i can get the browser window document rather than the XULdocument in the _javascript_?
