    <p>Your code is indeed a security vulnerability, you should never do it like that. There is a relatively easy way to do it securely however (important: this is assuming that your XUL isn't running in the browser's content area). You put an iframe into your menupopup:</p> <pre><code>&lt;menu class="menu" label="test"&gt; &lt;menupopup id="ajax" onpopupshowing="myextension.ajax('http://www.myserver.com/phpscript.php'&gt; &lt;menuitem&gt; &lt;iframe id="frame" type="content" width="450" height="700"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;/menuitem&gt; &lt;/menupopup&gt; &lt;/menu&gt; </code></pre> <p>You can then load your data into that frame using a data: URL. The important part here is type="content" here, this creates a security boundary between your code (chrome) and the code you loaded (content). Which is why it is important that your XUL document isn't in the browser's content area - then you are already on the "content" side of the security boundary, you cannot establish another one.</p> <p>Actually putting the data into the frame works like this:</p> <pre><code>var frame = document.getElementById("frame"); // &lt;iframe&gt; element var txt = request.responseText; frame.setAttribute("src", "data:text/html;charset=utf-8," + encodeURIComponent(txt)); </code></pre> <p>For more information see <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Displaying_web_content_in_an_extension_without_security_issues" rel="nofollow">https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Displaying_web_content_in_an_extension_without_security_issues</a> (this article was written specifically with RSS readers in mind).</p>

    1. COI tried with a very simple htmlpage: <html> <body> <p>Hello everyone</p> </body> </html> but it's not displayed in the iframe. When I add it directly like this <iframe id="frame" type="content" src="data:text/html,%3Chtml%3E%3Cbody%3E%3Cp%3Ehello%3C/p%3E%3C/body%3E%3C/html%3E"/> it does work but when I use frame.setAttribute it fails.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
