I use this code to show/hide my statusbaricon in my extension by the
optionwindow. It works with FF, but should work with others after
changing the type:
function statusbarIcon(iconVisible) {
var wm =
Components.classes["@mozilla.org/appshell/window-mediator;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIWindowMediator);
var type = 'navigator:browser'
var enumerator = wm.getEnumerator(type);
while(enumerator.hasMoreElements()) {
var win = enumerator.getNext();
var panel =
win.document.getElementById("your-extension-statusbarpanel");
panel.hidden = iconVisible;
}
}
The XUL-Part:
<checkbox id="prefstatusbarvisible" preference="statusbarvisible"
label="&prefstatusbarvisible.label;" onclick="return
statusbarIcon(this.checked);"/>
This will show/hide the statusbar icon in every running Firefox window.
Hope this helps and works with SeaMonkey and others
