Re: [Htmlvalidator-help] Problem in compiling tidy extension

[Werner F. <wer...@uf...>]

Marc,

another problem now :-(

Yesterday I changed ldconfig's config, so that all libraries for=20
libnstidy.so were found. And HTMLValidator shows up when I look ath the=20
source of a page.

BUT:
- HTMLValidator does nothing with the source code, just the blue bar=20
running at the bottom of the window
- HTMLValidator does not show up in the status bar of the browser window

I tried to link to another xpcom library by pointing ldconfig to=20
/usr/lib64/seamonkey. Successful on one side:

 > ldd libnstidy.so
         libxpcom.so =3D> /usr/lib64/seamonkey/libxpcom.so (0x00002abb564=
fb000)
         libnspr4.so =3D> /usr/lib64/libnspr4.so (0x00002abb566ff000)
         libplds4.so =3D> /usr/lib64/libplds4.so (0x00002abb5693a000)

It links against 64 bit libraries, all libs are found. BUT unsuccessful o=
n=20
the other side:
FATAL ERROR : The dynamic C library  contained in the extension file coul=
d=20
not be found.
Error: Components.classes['@mozilla.org/tidy;1'] has no properties
Source File: chrome://tidy/content/tidyUtil.js
Line: 96

This was where I was before... :-(

I will try to install another Firefox, maybe the libxpcom.so and/or=20
libxpcom_core.so differ too much.

Regards,
Werner
