mscott, first, nice work on the URL dispatching. when I have a browser window open, it works like a charm. I know you know about this problem, but I thought I'd log a friendly bug against it, so you can mark any duplicates of this one.

Nominating for beta as I'm pretty sure this is a required feature. I'm actually real close to having a fix for this. I've written a nsIContentHandler component entirely in JS. It should work fine except there are two problems: 1) JS components that are in local files on the user's machine aren't properly given the right capabilities. So right now they can't access xpconnect objects. Shaver's going to send me a patch for this. 2) There's a problem with returning xpconnect objects to a JS component when the component was invoked from C++. jband's helping me work on this xpconnect bug.

Making note that we also need this for links in the AIM conversation log. Please verify any fix you have in that case as well. Thanks!

Sadly, the problem with a component implemented in JS that needed to get a dom object from xpconnect could not be solved. Jband and vidur both agree that it was way to hard. So I was unable to use my JS implementation of this component. Which is unfortunate because it only took a couple lines of JS to implement. Instead I've implemented it in C++. It's a bit of a bulky change but seems to be working well so far.

I just checked this in. Now, if you click on a link in messenger that requires a browser window and if you don't have one open already, we'll creat the new window and load the url! *yeah*
