Hi all,
I'm trying to implement a functionality where you can drag and drop images and link from html pages onto a region in the Firefox.(1.5.0.3) sidebar Pretty much a newbie, I started with the tutorial on:
http://crazylion.myweb.hinet.net/Xulplanet/Xulplanet/dragex.html

However, whenever I drop anything (from html pages loaded in the browser ) onto the Observer element and check dropdata.flavour.contentType, it alway returns "text/unicode" . This happens for not just links but also images where I would expect, say, "image/png". Dropping links is returning the href and linked text, while images return the URL and the ALT text.

While it is every bit possible to work with this data for displaying images and links inside the observer , I would like to know *** if I'm doing something stupid that might run the app down under some situations***.

I've already appended "image/png", "image/gif", "application/x-moz-url" etc. to the FlavourSet and a call to session.isDataFlavorSupported("application/x-moz-url") etc returns true.

Regards,

-Rahul.
