This is frustrating me. How come the progress listener does not get called for a page loading in a tab that does not have focus?! I can't figure out why the Mozilla interface doesn't support this.

The "close" event handler is not working, any help • mozillaZine

What I think is that one can not use dialog boxes while the window is closing.. since the alert dialog box comes as MODAL dialog box and it needs a parent window and while the FF window is closing, it does not allow any dialog box to display or the dialog box gets failed to achieve the parent window OR maybe something else.
The Event object keeps tracks of various events that occur on the page, such as the user moving the mouse or clicking on the link, and allows you to react to them inside your scripts.

These tell you what area was repainted, using the same objects and coordinate system as the getClientRects() and getBoundingClientRect() methods. Important notes MozAfterPaint is a Gecko-only event, and for compatibility (and performance) reasons should not be used outside chrome code, such as extensions. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Gecko-Specific_DOM_Events

Event listeners & logging browsing session • mozillaZine Forums

There are several sample codes provided in the MDC but in order not to register log entries on every new window load or frame load i have used the solution proposed in: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Code_snippets:Tabbed_browser#Detecting_page_load . And the function to handle the page/tab load is myobj.onWindowLoad .
