Greg , i'm trying to change the selection's process on a nsIEditingSession
by modifying the nsIHTMLObjectResizer interface (in order to standarize the
selection's box on all components ) . After i get nsIEditingSession i query
the interface and add some
nsIHTMLObjectResizeListener<http://www.oxymoronical.com/experiments/apidocs/platform/1.9.2a1pre/interface/nsIHTMLObjectResizeListener>object.
The main idea of this is to intercept the resizing process by
nesting temporarily the resized object into a div object , resize this "
temporal div container " and commit the changes into the child node after
the mouse is released (end of the resizing process) ... my problem is that i
don't know wich interface can set the resized DOM object or how can i acces
this attribute . here is some code


myObjectResizer = XPCOMUtils.qi(myHtmlEditor, nsIHTMLObjectResizer.class);

myObjectResizer.addObjectResizeEventListener(new
nsIHTMLObjectResizeListener() {

                public void onStartResizing(nsIDOMElement arg0) {
                        /* here i want to create the div object , nest arg0
into it and change the resizedObject into the session by the div */
                    }

                    public void onEndResizing(nsIDOMElement resizedElement,
int oldWidth, int oldHeight, int newWidth, int newHeight) {
                        /* here i want to commit the changes to the nested
element */
                    }

                    public nsISupports queryInterface(String uuid) {
                        return Mozilla.queryInterface(this, uuid);
                    }
                });
