This interface is the primary interface for a DOM
window
object. It represents a single window object that may contain child windows if the document in the window contains an HTML frameset document, or if the document contains <iframe>
elements.
Inherits from:
nsIDOMWindow
Last changed in Gecko 1.9 (Firefox 3)Because nsIDOMWindow
is frozen, this interface was introduced in Firefox 3 (Gecko 1.9) to allow DOM windows to take on new features. DOM windows implement nsIDOMWindow2
, which is a subclass of nsIDOMWindow
.
Gecko 7.0 note
In Gecko 7.0 this interface has been merged into nsIDOMWindow
.
