Mozilla Firefox DocBook-Outliner Extension

About

This extension to Mozilla Firefox provides an outline of a DocBook document in a sidebar panel. It is based heavily on the HTML outliner extension by James Graham, without whose work, this wouldn't exist.

Install

Right-click the following link and select 'Save Link As...' and then open the file with Firefox once downloaded. (Firefox's security settings should prevent you from installing the extension directly from this site.)

• docbook-outliner-0.1.xpi

Notes

• This is my first ernest XUL hacking, and my first ever Extension: I probably got a few things wrong. (e.g. it probably clashes in some way with the HTML Outliner I copied from.)
• The outline is only shown if the panel thinks that the current document is DocBook. It guesses this by looking for the text "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook " at the start of the document's <!DOCTYPE>. If the document doesn't match that, the text 'Not a DocBook document' is displayed instead.
