Mozilla Firefox 3.0 RC1

[Innuendo]

I don't know if you are still reading this thread, warwagon, as your last post was over a week ago, but if you are still looking for a good solution for image zooming in FF3 then you can't go wrong with Image Zoom. It's the best, most powerful extension of its type that I have found so far. It works with Firefox, Mozilla, Thunderbird, Netscape, and Flock.

It can zoom/reduce single images on a page or all images on a page.

Is there an extension out there that makes it so there's a reload option on each tab next to the x to close it, or even just a way to double click on the tab and have it reload the page? That would be most helpful! Let me know!

Try TabMix Plus. :)

You will have to use the dev TMP which you can get here http://tmp.garyr.net/tab_mix_plus-dev-build.xpi

Ok, I installed it. Where is the option to have a button for reload on each tab, or how can I set it up so I can reload a tab just by double clicking it?

Go to settings and then click on the mouse and you can make it behave any way you want to. To Reload a tab, it is normal just a double click, to reload all tabs you cvan set it so if you DC on the TB all tabs will reload. There are numerous selections.

Can anyone recommend me a good gmail swithcer? I have two accounts, but old Gmail Manager is not compatible with FF3...

Also, I had problems with crashing on some web sites, with little digging I found out that there is a problem with javascript that checkes for Silverlight installed, so the solution is disable Silverlight 1.0 plugins and install 2.0 beta and it works! :)

Tools > Tab Mix Plus Options > Mouse > Mouse Clicking > Double-click

Change the "on a tab" setting to "Reloads the tab", although on mine that was the default already.

Check the newest version (0.5.5, AMO says 0.5.4):

According to its change log, sth has been fixed for Fx3.

It's Fx. :D

IMNSHO it's enough to check the sandbox on addons.mozilla.org (you'll need a user account there)...

Almost every Fx2 extension has meanwhile been updated.

:)

(Alternatively, there are mostly replacements for Fx3...)

Thank you very much! It works

Went ahead and installed RC 1 and installed Adblock plus (thanks to Gary), while none of the other add ons I had installed worked. There is only one other one that I really want and that is a weather one.

Is there any ones people would like to specifically recommend? The old one I had got its weather from Weather.com which is my personal preference.

Forecast Fox Is Compatible. So is The Weather Bug.

Yes I saw those two when I was searching. The thing is, I just wanted personal opinions from those that use a weather extension.

I just use Intellicast as a bookmark on my BM toolbar. Those weather extensions slow down your browser. I get the same info off of the Intellicast website.

Thanks, man! That's exactly what I was looking for! What's up with these colors, though? The text on my tabs is red. Anyway to change that? Nevermind, I found it. Thanks again! Edited May 27, 2008 by mancode20

Anyway to save the currently opened tabs when I exit Firefox 3.0 RC1?

With 2.0, I shut my computer down without closing FF and then was able to reopen FF with the tabs when I restart the computer.

With 3.0 Beta 5, I had to click file, exit, then save before I shut down my computer.

Trying that same procedure in 3.0 RC1 doesn't not prompt me to save, nor does it save any of my open tabs.

Try the Session Manager extension.

When pressing the red 'X' at the top right, in the titlebar, there should be an option on the dialog box, which appears, stating "Save and Quit", as well as the "Quit" and "Cancel" buttons.

Does this not appear for you?

Thanks for the heads up. While reading the description, it sounds like what I need. I will find out tomorrow because I really need to get to bed! :p
