Using HTMLElement instead of MozXulElement because I think it makes sense to use that for custom element in xhtml file.. ALso if mozxulelment is used, you can't get `style` object using node.style.

the reason was the position of scripts in glodaView..xhtml. I have put all the scripts at the bottom of page, so that custom element is created first then the code of glodaFacetView.js is run, else it will throw error.

Could that same script order be maintained but at the top of the file? Or is there some issue with having the CE defined and upgraded during parse?

yes,i guess facet-date custom element is not available when the code in glodaFacetView.js is run.. The errors occus before the conencted callback of the facet-date is called.. that's why i put all the script at the bottom.. I was aboutt to ask you the difference between the lifecicle of xbl element and ce.

can't be right. brushItems was not a getter

As long as you put the script that registeres the CE above the script that runs the page scripts that rely on it, I don't expect there would be a problem with them being at the top of the page. What errors are you seeing?

I have done this intentionally. The variables/properties of custom element are private e.g., you can't call methods of custom element using the custome element node. Only way to have reference of ce inner variables and also have an exposed method is to set a getter.. If you see glodaFacetView.js, it uses brushItems, clearBrushedItems, build methods. I dont think this is something wrong syntax or styles wise.

There are not their for any advantage. I have put down those files just to make things work. If put above, you ll see that the before the creation of custom element the code in glodaFacetView.js is called, which doesn't work obviously becuase customelement code is not executed till then.

I get `this.mn is null. Can't access it weaklistener property` error - https://searchfox.org/comm-central/source/mozilla/toolkit/mozapps/extensions/amInstallTrigger.js#41 


I extend MozXulElement then I get this error when I put scripts at top but when I put script at bottom then there is no error. Strange thing is if I use HTMLElement then I dont get any errors irrespective of the position of script. 

You can check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5bYDqdAL8Y , the last section of the video shows the MozXULElement version.

This is not a problem produced by this patch.. you can check it on default branch and see that it throws error even then.
