[Project_owners] Redirect to a web page after installing and extension

[Shivanand Sharma / Varun]

Hi,

sorry, I learnt most of the stuff cutting and pasting code (and
unfortunately most of the time that's how things work :)


   - You'll have to set a boolean preference to know whether you have
   already opened this runonce URL or not. Initially set it to false
   - You need to add an event listener to window.open (or possibly after the
   session has been restored) to run this function that opens the URL
   - Finally in this function you set the preference to true else you'll end
   up triggering the runonce routine everytime firefox starts.

Sorry I don't have code. Because the best place to find it is at
http://developer.mozilla.org
