This is the prompt interface which can be used without knowledge of a parent window. The parentage is hidden by the
GetInterface
though which it is obtained.
Inherits from:
nsISupports
Last changed in Gecko 1.8 (Firefox 1.5 / Thunderbird 1.5 / SeaMonkey 1.0)
Note: This interface is identical to
nsIPromptService
but without the parent nsIDOMWindow
parameter. To avoid redundancy, all methods here link to nsIPromptService
. If you are using this interface, you must remove the nsIDOMWindow
arguments from those methods.Normally you would use the prompt service as it is more flexible, but sometimes a callback will request an nsIPrompt
via nsIInterfaceRequestor.getInterface()
. To get an instance, call the nsIWindowWatcher.getNewPrompter()
.
