These want to add a checkbox to the dialog. I propose an interface like this: | |||
/** | |||
* This interface allows creating auth prompts that have a specific parent. | |||
*/ | |||
[scriptable, uuid(...)] | |||
interface nsIAuthPrompt2Factory | |||
{ | |||
/** | |||
* Returns an object implementing nsIAuthPrompt2 that creates dialogs | |||
* parented to aParent. | |||
*/ | |||
nsIAuthPrompt2 getAuthPrompt2(in nsIDOMWindow aParent); | |||
}; | |||
This allows more flexibility than the current interface that wraps an nsIPrompt. | |||
For actually adding the checkbox, nsIPromptService2 will need a method like promptUsernameAndPassword2Checkbox. | |||
