25 Sep 09 URL-2-Titlebar Firefox Add-on
Recently I got a request in the mail from a user of one of my Firefox add-ons. He asked me if I could make an add-on that displayed the url of the current tab in the titlebar instead of the actual title of the page being shown. I’m not interested in creating more add-ons for Firefox or Thunderbird, they take up quite a lot of time with user requests, getting approved by the Mozilla addons site, etc. That is why I’ve discontinued 6 out of the 9 add-ons I’ve created. But anyway, I knew that it would be trivial to make this add-on so I decided to help this person out. (more…)
01 Aug 07 Mozilla Extension Generator
Since I started creating Mozilla extensions I spent a lot of time writing boilerplate code, and copying from one extension from the next. Then I found Ted Mielczarek’s Extension Generator which is a great page that takes some parameters and creates an extension ready for you to use. I used that for some time but in the end I still kept modifying each extension to fit my own style and include my library functions. So I decided to make my own Mozilla Extension Generator in Python (more…)
