Hi, just started to use your demo app here (i am the guy from stackiverflow with the sdk sidebar). So I have your demo code up and running. Very nice.
Can you give some more explanation about line 75/76. The whole Iframe code is rather cryptic and very hard to read. Can you give an example how that works?
Hi man glad to see people using the comments section.
In reply to your question on how to add the bar to the left side instead of right:
Replace L#82 which is browser.appendChild(splitter);
with browser.insertBefore(splitter, browser.firstChild);
and then replace L#85 which is browser.appendChild(sidebar);
with browser.insertBefore(sidebar, browser.firstChild);
To toggle the sidebar visibility progamatically just toggle the hidden attribute of the sidebar and splitter to true or false.
For line 76, which is setting the iframe src that was an example for someone trying to load that html. Basically just remove that and replace with the source to your page you want in there. Like if you want to load bing in the sidebar set it to src: 'http://www.bing.com/'
or if you want to load a page thats packaged within your addon set it to its path.
Notes:
See lines 75 and 76, this is where most of your customization takes place.
If you want to make the content in the sidebar different then edit loadIntoWindow between lines 44 and 86 on what you want to insert. Be sure to remove this stuff in the unloadFromWindow function between lines 93 and 101.
KNOWN BUG:
If you install this demo addon, and also have the firefox facebox messenger service sidebar visible:
If you open the facebook social messenger bar, and you click and drag one splitter, it resizes both sidebars, the facebook messenger and also the sidebar add by this addon. I don't know why this is, please share advice on how to fix, I would really appreciate that.
