I changed a few files in the Stylish Content folder that will make your styles visisble again. The only option you have is to Edit the style. No disable, enable, update buttons. The price you pay for a hack job. :D Replace the Stylish files with my files. Your Stylish should be version 1.0.8.

Here's the link:

From earlier in this thread by Streetwolf, not sure if it still works.

Hi,
I'm trying to fix the "Components.classes['@mozilla.org/extensions/manager;1'] is undefined" with ImagehostGrabber plugin that stopped working with the new Plugin Manager.
The code that the developer used is

Code: Select all

cacheFile = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/extensions/manager;1"].getService(Components.interfaces.nsIExtensionManager).getInstallLocation(id).getItemLocation(id);

Where can I find how to do the same thing with the new plugin manager?

Thanks.
Ciao,
Rigido.

I had a similar use of the extension manager in an extension that I maintain.
The only way I saw to get it to work was to use the directory service to get your profile directory, then append "extensions" and then append the extension's ID. This worked, for the most part. You can no longer do this with that extension.

@KWierso

have a look at the __LOCATION__ property and then use parent to get the right directory. Althought, i dont know how it works with jar packages.
