Is there any complete, up-to-date tutorial for Java Firefox extensions?

Hello,
Is there a complete tutorial for Java Firefox extensions? Specifically, for Java 1.6u12/14+ and Firefox 3.0.8+, preferably understandable by someone with little knowledge of JavaScript and Firefox internals?

Everything I could find is either obsolete, incomplete, or needs previous experiences with Firefox extensions.

What I need is to be able to: 1) declare a Java object as a singleton for all open Firefox windows, 2) notify it on any get/post requests, 3) notify it on any html loaded events, 4) modify html before it's rendered, 5) list all open windows/tabs/frames.

Something like: for all sites in domain .com add "(p)Hello World(/p)" between first and second (p)s, and cancel all requests with "foo" in URL, with all logic, including checking for specific domains / looking for specific words / fragments done on Java side.

Greetings, Lilianne
