Add a FAQ section with the first common issue #12

Closed kewisch closed 7 years ago

kewisch commented 7 years ago

As requested, here is a FAQ section with the issue I solved during the my last office hours. Wording changes welcome.

I've fixed the typos, thanks for catching those! @rpl I can't see the proposal for an additional question though, what am I missing?

rpl commented 7 years ago

@kewisch ouch, I'm sorry, the additional QA was part of the previous comment but it got lost somehow when I submitted the comment to github :-(

It is related to the chrome.manifest (and it completes with the intro of the FAQ section where we say that experiments 'have many similarities to traditional add-ons' by point out some of the differences), something like:

Can I include a chrome.manifest in an experiment?
-------------------------------------------------

The experiments do not support the 'chrome.manifest', and it will be ignored if included in the experiments add-on source dir. Look at 'How do I get an URI reference to the files in my experiment?' if you need to get an URI which points to assets packaged with the experiment (e.g. an image, an additional jsm file, a framescript etc.).

Thanks @kewisch!
