2007-09-28

Fixes and new features

Known issues

  • A confusing exception is thrown when install.xml refers to the wrong files (Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520012 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) [nsIFileInputStream.init]"...). If this happens, check the install.xml file has the correct reference to the main XML document.
  • JavaScript placed too early in the main document sometimes does not work. The work-around is to place it later if this occurs.
  • Paused and Unpaused events don't fire.
  • Lots of errors are thrown when only some the engine interface callbacks methods are implemented.
  • standby() may cause unexpected pausing.
  • Scrollbars placed one underneath each other can all appear on top of each other when using JWL
  • A confusing message is presented when the install.xml file is missing ([WM] invalid widget: Invalid namespace for widget manifest)
  • JWL checkbox="checked" doesn't work
