XUL app .Exe

I'm thinking how Firefox, Thunderbird, etc are created. They say it's XUL with C++ and javascript? Do you guys try creating a xul that runs on it's own (an executable file)??? Or any links for tutorials about this one?

Need guidance. Thanks a bunch.

to get a xul app to run on double click, setup a .xul filetype to open on
<path_to\FIREFOX.EXE> -chrome "file://%1"
your xul file will run outside of the browser but it will not have full permissions. I'm not sure how you grant full permissions to it without installing it as an extension. Without full permissions things like the file open dialog won't work.

http://www.xulplanet.com/ is the place to start.

Thanks for that DE... and may ask you why do you so many things that I don't? Hehehe. Anyway, thanks a lot.

Well every couple of months or so I get it into my head that I need to learn something new. This usually takes the pattern of starting off with a lot of bluster downloading tutoritals, IDEs etc. Then I create a "Hello World"/Notepad program and get frustrated. The frustration usually is as a result of not knowing how to do things that I would consider simple in other areas.
Anyway good luck with Xul I think it going to play a big part in application/interface design in the future. I'm not sure but I think Microsoft will be replacing WinForms with something similar for Longhorn called XAML. Then again maybe it won't be the next big thing,anyone remember VRML.

Thanks DE, I've done a modified VBForums Extension from Cander's. But this is a new task (I guess). I'll be messing with this and hopefully get something. Just want to create a simple Firefox composer (plain editor that is, no designer mode). Again, thanks a lot.

Any input is still a "no syntax error for me"... Meaning, I'll gladly appreciate.
