I want to create a Firefox addon. Based on this page URL I want to filter a URL.The problem is when I use jpm run command which opens a new instance of Firefox, the instance does not opens any URL at all. I even used an empty index.js file and the problem still remains

jpm run just opens a Firefox instance. You must browse to the url you want to check.

Or you can add this code to your index.js:

var tabs = require("sdk/tabs");
tabs.open("http://www.example.com");

but be aware that this code will be executed every time you addon loads so you should remove it before publishing your add-on because it'd be very annoying.

  • I browse but nothing happens. It exactly do nothing when I enter url in address bar and press Enter or Go! – nAviD Jan 08 '16 at 21:16
  • That's a different problem. Please open another question and show the relevant parts of your code. If we didn't see the code we can't help. – matagus Jan 08 '16 at 21:48

The opened instance proxy is set to "Use system proxy settings" so the website may not be opened.
