Re: Mozilla save method for xml ? anything new?

 I did try saving to file using the httpxmlrequest + serializer using 
example  code
at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Parsing_and_serializing_XML

....but I get  "ns_error_file_not_found" [x80520012] message during init()

I'm not sure if this means an error file or the output file.

Do you happen to know if the outputfile (dom.xml) has to exist before hand
....or is it deleted&created automatically ?

var serializer = new XMLSerializer();
var foStream = 
Components.classes["@mozilla.org/network/file-output-stream;1"]
               .createInstance(Components.interfaces.nsIFileOutputStream);
var file = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/file/directory_service;1"]
           .getService(Components.interfaces.nsIProperties)
           .get("ProfD", Components.interfaces.nsIFile); // get profile 
folder
file.append("extensions");   // extensions sub-directory
file.append("{5872365E-67D1-4AFD-9480-FD293BEBD20D}");   // GUID of your 
extension
file.append("dom.xml");   // filename
foStream.init(file, 0x02 | 0x08 | 0x20, 0664, 0);   // write, create, 
truncate
serializer.serializeToStream(doc, foStream, "");   // rememeber, doc is the 
DOM tree
foStream.close();

PPS

I would still be interested in knowing whether support for document.load 
(and document.save) is only a temporary
feature !!
.
