altctrl on firefox 4 - 25 Mar 2011
Hey, this post is on altctrl, my firefox extension. Today I have upgraded to firefox 4, and my extension was not compatible. I was about to start making the necessary changes in the .rdf file, but then i stopped and went to mozilla addon website and check if my extension is still used by anyone. To my surprise ~ 9 people every day use it. Thank you. And there was another goody from mozilla. A setting for the extension where you could change the maxVersion for which altctrl is compatible with. 1 click, and I was done, no code, no upload, no approval process. Thanks Mozilla.
If any user of altctrl reads this post, please get in touch with me here in the comments or by email and tell me how you use it, and how usefull it is [or not].
One more thing, if you do not find the status-bar any more, and you want it back, go to View -> Toolbars -> Add-on Bar, or toggle Ctrl-/ . If you don't want the status bar, right click on the text of the extension [saveonshop] and then uncheck "Search prices onclick".
cheers.
