Question

I am trying to add a button on the Customize Tool Window on Firefox 4

My folders look like this:

addon
 |- content
    |- om
       |- xul
          |- browser.xul
          |- browser.css
 |- skin
    |- default
       |- icon.png

My chrome.manifest file:

content orkutmanager content/om/
content orkutmanager content/om/ contentaccessible=yes

skin    orkutmanager default skin/default/

locale  orkutmanager en-US locale/en-US/

overlay chrome://global/content/browser.xul chrome://orkutmanager/content/xul/browser.xul

My browser.xul file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="chrome://orkutmanager/content/xul/browser.css"?>

<overlay xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul">

    <toolbarpalette id="BrowserToolbarPalette">
        <toolbarbutton id="orkutmanager-button" label="OM"
                       class="toolbarbutton-1 chromeclass-toolbar-additional"
                       tooltiptext="Orkut Manager"/>
    </toolbarpalette>

</overlay>

Accessing chrome://orkutmanager/content/xul/browser.xul gets me to a blank page, which means the file was found. (Should something be rendered?).

Accessing chrome://global/content/browser.xul gets me to an error page:

Firefox can't find the file at jar:file:///C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 7/omni.jar!/chrome/toolkit/content/global/browser.xul

Isn’t this file supposed to exist? Did it move? How can I add an icon on the Customize Toolbar window?

Apparently I should post this as an answer for accepting:

seems to demonstrate roughly the problem you are looking at. However, you commented that this was not correct entirely, but that it did lead to you finding the problem which was the inclusion of the filename in a different place.

For others fighting the same problem, ensure that all the new paths are up to date.

Thanks.
