I saw many questions like "Components.classes[xyz]" is undefined, but I have an issue with the Components.classes object itself being undefined. I have a small dummy html page where I'm trying to run a basic sample script from http://books.mozdev.org/chapters/ch08.html#77008 (slightly altered):
<script type="text/javascript">
function blah() {
var c = Components;
var clazzes = c.classes; // clazzes is still undefined after this line executes
var myClass = clazzes["@mozilla.org/browser/bookmarks-service;1"]; // here it throws
var bmks = myClass.getService(Components.interfaces.nsIBookmarksService);
// call one of the object's methods:
// flush the bookmarks to disk if they've been touched.
bmks.Flush( );
}
</script>
I've already tried running Firefox in safe mode, and it's a fresh installation of the application. Am I missing some sort of initialization?
