Hi! This is Mooquackwooftweetmeow, a collection of stuff by Greg K Nicholson.

Entries labelled ‘Firefox’

  1. Big New Tab Button An add-on for Firefox. It makes the New Tab button bigger.
  2. Remove Close Buttons from Tabs A self-explanatorily–named Firefox add-on.
  3. Just Give Me A Back Button An extension to remove the Forward button from Firefox.
  4. Places’ Full Titles An extension for Firefox.
  5. Your Computer May Be Commandeered By Randomers I'm often amazed by how many screenshots of Firefox include a critical update icon. A red disc in the top-right of the browser window means there is a critical update to Firefox available and that you should upgrade immediately.
  6. Back/Forward Dropdown Menus - an Extension for Firefox An Extension for Firefox that turns the entire Back and Forward buttons into dropdown menus.
  7. Bookmarks' Full Titles - an Extension for Firefox An Extension for Firefox that shows bookmarks' full titles in the Bookmarks menu and Bookmarks Toolbar menus.
  8. Back/Forward Dropdown Remover - an Extension for Firefox An Extension for Firefox that removes the dropdown arrows from the Back and Forward buttons.
  9. Get Squirefox More spoof Get Firefox buttons
  10. Firefox-related miscellanea I was going to entitle this entry Mozillanea but realised that was intensely naff.
  11. Live Bookmarks How to swap bookmarks with your friends, with help from a Firefox
  12. Jukefox Why does no-one listen to you when you're right?
  13. Firefox extension wackiness Firefox extensions prompt much mirth
  14. How to remove the borders from Firefox and Thunderbird's toolbars Qute, Firefox's old default theme (and Thunderbird's soon-to-be-retired default theme) doesn't have borders on its toolbars (at least in the latest Firefox version; see also the Qute FAQ). Winstripe, the new default theme, does. Personally, I prefer no-borders - it looks cleaner.
  15. Does Your Browser Have An Add Toaster Button? Firefox's New Tab button looks like a slice of toast sitting in a toaster - with an overlaid plus symbol, of course.
  16. One Tree Hill I've been using Winstripe for a couple of hours now, and I'm surprised to report that it's passable. Crazy, eh?
  17. Bye Bye, Sharpreader Since the demise of the free FeedDemon betas, I'd been using Sharpreader or Wildgrape NewsDesk (depending on what mood I was in) to read RSS feeds. Neither was perfect, but I'd settled on Sharpreader, despite the oh-so-slow notification pop-ups (this on a 2.5GHz machine...). But today I thought I'd give the RSS Reader Panel for Firefox (http://texturizer.net/firefox/extensions/#rssreaderpanel) another try. Guess what? It's pretty good. The Open In Contents Area option now produces a spiffy-looking display, with the option of customising the CSS used (so you can't complain even if you don't like it).
  18. Wow! Internet Explorer can even mangle XML! Here's me thinking Internet Explorer wouldn't display this feed properly! Obviously, it doesn't... but it at least has a go at mangling it, leaving this text (and this) legible. You do get a nice piece of HTML above the title, however.
  19. Take Back the Web This is the bit where I talk about Mozilla Firefox for a while
