firefox.cfg no longer overwrite new tab content
I'm using firefox developer edition. The latest version: 76.0b2 I have firefox.cfg set up to overwrite new tab content with locally stored html. The code in firefox.cfg that worked until recent update:
/* set new tab page */ try {
var newTabURL = "file:///G:/Documents/Newtab.html"; aboutNewTabService = Cc["@mozilla.org/browser/aboutnewtab-service;1"].getService(Ci.nsIAboutNewTabService); aboutNewTabService.newTabURL = newTabURL;
} catch(e){Cu.reportError(e);} // report errors in the Browser Console
In the browser console there is an error message displayed:
[Exception... "Cannot modify properties of a WrappedNative" nsresult: "0x80570034 (NS_ERROR_XPC_CANT_MODIFY_PROP_ON_WN)" location: "JS frame :: firefox.cfg :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 7" data: no]
Any idea what that error message means and how to resolve it? Does anything changed regarding new tab overwrite?

Try this code:
//
var {classes:Cc,interfaces:Ci,utils:Cu} = Components;
/* set new tab page */
try {
Cu.import("resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.jsm");
var newTabURL = "file:///G:/Documents/Newtab.html";
AboutNewTab.newTabURL = newTabURL;
} catch(e){Cu.reportError(e);} // report errors in the Browser Console

Thank You SO MUCH! This works!
Is there any way to take focus from the address bar? My local page has a search field on it.
This code takes the focus away from the address bar:
// var {classes:Cc,interfaces:Ci,utils:Cu} = Components; try {
Cu.import("resource:///modules/AboutNewTab.jsm");
var newTabURL = "file:///D:/Dox/Startseite/Startseite.htm";
AboutNewTab.newTabURL = newTabURL;
} catch(e){Cu.reportError(e);} // report errors in the Browser Console
// Optional: Don't place the caret in the location bar. Useful if you want a page's search box to have focus instead. function SetFocusOnPage () {
setTimeout(function() {
gBrowser.selectedBrowser.focus();
}, 0);
} gBrowser.tabContainer.addEventListener("TabOpen", SetFocusOnPage, false);
