window.openDialog return value

[sfcheng at gmail.com]

I found that if I use an internal chrome:// url to open a dialog using window.openDialog, I can pass back return value using window.arguments[n].value="*****" just fine. However, if I use a file from the local file system, I wasn't able pass back return value. Writing to window.arguments[n].value doesn't work. I believe there is some security restriction here. Does anyway know which part of the C++ code is responsible for defining the security rules for different url sources?

Thank you.
