It could prove very useful!<br /><br /> I&#39;ve been trying to port my first Firefox extension to Thunderbird and couldn&#39;t figure out why it wouldn&#39;t appear, even though its linked JS was executing! After about an hour and a half of Googling, this pointed me in the right direction, and I eventually found out that the IDs for (roughly) the same containers in different apps are different. I&#39;ve yet to see the MDC page that explains that, though it may well exist.<br /><br />For the reference of others, Firefox&#39;s main toolbox (into which you place toolbars) is called &quot;navigator-toolbox&quot;. In Thunderbird it&#39;s called &quot;mail-toolbox&quot;. There&#39;s a description of how to use both here:<br /><br />http://starkravingfinkle.org/blog/2008/01/extension-developers-breaking-news/Greg J Preecehttp://www.txttools.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542840264156477606.post-52174762998793515622009-11-24T23:33:29.302-05:002009-11-24T23:33:29.302-05:00Thank sir!

I would like to automatically save attachments of new messages. Because of that I think I need another source for the attachment array than this.getElementById(). Can you please help me.<br /><br />thxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542840264156477606.post-53232860923145999892009-04-06T11:07:00.000-04:002009-04-06T11:07:00.000-04:00@Anonymous That is the exact reason I posted this. I havent done too much more TB plugin dev work but If you have questions you can always post them and I can see if I can find an answer.Donald J Organ IVhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14412453157119493777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542840264156477606.post-27971471273962787812009-04-06T11:06:00.000-04:002009-04-06T11:06:00.000-04:00@JosephSant Not really sure...as you would have to have some type of delay in opening the reply window...but where there is a will there is a way. I know you can open local files....so maybe once the attachment is downloaded do the processing by the plugin itself and not a local script and then you'll know when to open the reply window.Donald J Organ IVhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14412453157119493777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542840264156477606.post-28202001562711107132009-04-06T11:00:00.000-04:002009-04-06T11:00:00.000-04:00Thank you very much for this!<BR/>I went to the same conclusion as you:<BR/>- FF tutorial stuff is pretty big, but TB stuff = 0 (almost)<BR/>- I was looking for these specific functions too without finding them<BR/><BR/>Thanx again and keep this blog working with future good remarks or ideas as you doAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542840264156477606.post-86802787604319307572009-03-22T11:18:00.000-04:002009-03-22T11:18:00.000-04:00Thank you kindly for this summary. Do you have a minor error on Line 10 where fullfile should really be fullfilePath. I wonder if you could venture an opinion on how difficult it would be to save an attachment, process that attachment using a local script then suck up the text output of the script into an edit or reply window for further annotation by the TB user.Joseph Santhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07891562510531077044noreply@blogger.com
