I use the standard XPI Install procedures for installing a theme. I've recently been informed that the installer copies the theme's *.jar file to the target folder with full write permissions, i.e., 666 in Unix-speak. I build the theme *.xpi using Win98SE which does not have the ability to set file permissions, which I believe may be part of the problem (meaning, I believe Win98SE defaults to 666 when installed on systems that have permissions?) Does mozilla offer a procedure call that can be added to the install script that can set file permissions in a cross-platform way to, say, 644? -- Netscape FAQs: http://www.ufaq.org Netscape 6/7 Tips: http://www.hmetzger.de/net6e.html Netscape 6 FAQ: http://home.adelphia.net/~sremick/ns6faq.html Netscape 7 Help/Tips: http://techaholic.net/ns7.html Web page validation: http://validator.w3.org About Mozilla: http://www.mozilla.org
