my firefox extension has an object myExt .
myExt = {
request: function(){ //makes request to server},
callback: function(json) { //do something with this }
};
From a dynamically added script element, I make a call to a server that returns json, i want the json to be sent to myExt.callback that exists within my extension's js code.
//from my extension, i add a script element
myExt.request();
//from server i get the following response
myExt.callback ( {"some":"json"}) ;
//but the window doesnt find a reference to myExt
how do i make a reference to myExt variable from the webpage ?
