That would cause problems for the people whom have dark window colors if I'm getting what your saying, I use black as my windows colors and that would make it hard for me to read my text, so I think their would have to be to different versions, if I'm correct another one of the Glass add-ons for Firefox uses black font colors.

What I meant was that there would be the white "glow" around the black text, kinda like on the Windows title bars, which would theoretically make it easy to read for anyone.

I am having problems with this add-on. It does not work with Web Developer Toolbar (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60). It looks something like this:

Also, why do toolbars (like StumbleUpon) not become glass?

I have the same problem ! i do not have StumbleUpon. The version of Firefox is 3.5.5!

I'll try it out, been planning this for a long time! Just hold on a little longer 'till I'm done with my exams!

Firefox just told me there was an update for this addon, so I natually let it update. The update ruined the all-glass look by adding a solid silver bar behind my bookmark toolbar and a disconnected grey bar behind my tabs. Is there any easy way to downgrade? It looked perfect for the last few months that I've been using it. I have another computer with it that hasn't done the update, I might try and see if I can copy the extension from that and replace this, because this looks terrible.

EDIT: I stand corrected. For some weird reason, I had All-Glass installed, but FF decided to update it with the basic Glasser, which negated the all-glass modifications. I uninstalled Glasser and reinstalled all-glass and it looks wonderful again!

This extension is fantastic, it really makes Firefox look great with Windows 7. There is only one (very) big problem (for me). When it's used in combination with a vertical tab bar it screws up the display of websites drastically.

Vertical tab bar:

Disabling All-Glass fixes the issue. I've tried many different vertical tab bars, they all have the same results. The one in the screenshot is Tab Kit. If you could fix this issue in the next version (hopefully), that would be absolutely awesome!

So no comment on my post? This issue happens with any sort of sidebar add-on as well.

I didn't get a response in several days so I felt the need to re-voice the issue. May I suggest something? How about having a list of known issues in the main post so that it can save people such as myself from posting and then re-posting a known issue? :p

(unless of course I'm blind and missed the list)

Hey guys!

I'm sorry for the delays, I've been somewhat very busy with school and exams etc, but after tomorrow I'll update my addon, and release a list of known issues.

Expect it all before sunday!

And oh, happy holiday season ^^

oh and your add-on is one of the most popular of 09 http://lifehacker.com/5433177/most-popular...-themes-of-2009 :yes:

Wow, thanks for the link!

I fixed the faulty download, MozAddons was acting strange a few hours ago. It should be up correctly quite soon.

Merry Christmas everyone ^^ !

While we're waiting, you might like these userstyles I found that go nicely with it.

+1 Some of thoses should be added into that extension !

BTW : 2.1.4 is giving me a "gbrowser is null" popup at startup, I have to click "ok" and afaik nothing is broken, but it's an annoying popup, how to get rid of it ?

Is there anything in the Error Console? There may be a conflict with one of your other extensions or a theme. Try creating a new profile, only install All-Glass and see if you still get the same error. If not, then start Firefox normally and disable all your extensions. Enable All-Glass, then enable one extension at a time and see which one is the culprit.

I'm trying to contact the authors to ask if they would mind :)

For the error:

Go to

%appdata% (just enter this in Run)\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\yourfolder.default\extensions\[email protected]\chrome\content and open up dwm-overlay.js.

On the third last line, replace

gBrowser.addEventListener("load", Glasser_OnLoad, false);

with

window.addEventListener("load", Glasser_OnLoad, false);

Should fix it.

    • Apple would rather delay Siri AI than open iOS to rival assistants in the EU by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, Apple today announced a revamped Siri AI experience for iOS and iPadOS users. However, this new Siri AI experience will not be available on iPhones and iPads in the European Union when iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 launch later this year. In a detailed press release, Apple blamed the Siri delay on the EU’s Digital Markets Act, highlighting that EU regulators did not accept its proposed solutions for bringing Siri AI to the region. Consequently, there is currently no timeline for Siri AI’s availability on iOS and iPadOS in the EU. Here is what EU users will be missing due to this delay: Siri AI, Apple’s next-generation assistant powered by Apple Intelligence A new dedicated Siri app for revisiting conversations Expanded Visual Intelligence features Integrated AI-assisted writing tools Siri mode in Camera on iOS Other system-level AI features Since the new Siri experience on watchOS 27 is dependent on an iOS 27 device, EU users will also miss out on Siri AI on watchOS 27. The most frustrating part is that even developers based in the EU will not be able to test or use the new Siri AI features for their apps on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and watchOS 27. In its press release, Apple mentioned that making Siri AI available in the EU would require the company to give other AI assistants (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) broad access to private user data and the ability to control installed apps. Essentially, the EU wants competing AI systems to be able to read and send messages, make purchases, access files, and perform actions across apps. To address these concerns, Apple proposed an intermediary system called Trusted System Agent. This system would have allowed other virtual assistants to access the same features as Siri AI in a safer way. However, the European Commission rejected Apple's proposals, and it is currently unclear why. The good news is that Apple stated it will continue working with EU regulators to bring Siri AI to the region. For now, however, iPhone and iPad users in the EU will have to wait. If platform gatekeepers such as Apple and Google reserve deep operating system capabilities only for their own AI assistants, rival services such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and others will be at a major disadvantage. Modern AI assistants are no longer simple chatbots. They require access to core OS-level capabilities such as reading on-screen context, interacting with installed apps, sending messages, creating calendar events, managing files, and completing user-approved actions across the device. If only Siri on iOS or Gemini on Android can access these capabilities, competing AI services will struggle to offer the same level of convenience, even if their underlying models are better. This is exactly what the European Union's DMA is trying to address. Apple and Google should be allowed to protect user privacy and security, but they should not be permitted to use those concerns as a blanket excuse to block rival AI assistants from getting fair access to core platform features. A secure permission-based framework could allow users to choose their preferred AI assistant without giving any company unrestricted access to personal data.

    • When I was a teen, I actually believed that the government used to be always be the bad guy. However as an adult, someone who has actually seen the Law work (though not perfect). I now think everyone cries a river. In this specific case, the so called freedom has consequences to society. Anyone who has seen how child are indeed affected, and I don't mean only extreme things like getting drugs or hate crimen , but no one can deny society as a whole has gone down a rabbit hole due to exesive use of internet. Before anyone calls out that it's the parents responsibility. Yes that's true, but the reality your family/kids might be good people. There are 99% out there who are not and have been brain dead by many things on the internet.
