Hi all, I'm writing my first Firefox XUL toolbar, and am getting a strange behavior - in order to debug my code, I call the same js function from both the firefox toolbar and from a button on a very simple HTML file I created. The javascript function displays an alert window, gets an element using 'document.getElementById', changes its...
