1. The Web Deve­lo­per trans­la­tion for Bra­zi­lian Por­tu­guese is very bad.

   Please, fix it or exc­lude this bad translation.

   Thanks!

2. I added an item in the FAQ about this, but basi­cally all sup­port requests for the loca­li­za­tions should go to the loca­li­za­tion authors at Babel­Zi­lla.

3. Thanks for the Fire­fox 3.5 update!

   Thanks

6. A great piece of work.
   Sug­ges­tion: under Infor­ma­tion -> View docu­ment size, have an option to exc­lude anything already cached (e.g. sty­lesheets, graphics).

7. po — I’ll look into this for a future release.

8. Any news on when a 3.5.1 update will be issued?

   Mark — July 23, 2009 @ 06:48 —

9. Mark — both exten­sions are mar­ked com­pa­ti­ble with Fire­fox 3.5.* so they already work with Fire­fox 3.5. If you are having pro­blems please read the ins­ta­lla­tion help documentation.

   Chris Pederick — July 23, 2009 @ 07:45 —

10. I am also having pro­blems with web deve­lo­per in fire­fox ver­sion 3.5.1. It was fine until fire­fox upda­ted to 3.5.1 then it disappeared

    I have gone through the ins­ta­lla­tion docu­men­ta­tion and nothing see­med to help.

    Bob — July 27, 2009 @ 22:11 —

11. It works fine for me with 3.5.*

    DaForum — July 28, 2009 @ 05:43 —

12. @bob: for me, it was a loca­li­sa­tion pro­blem, 1.1.6 did not upgrade to 1.1.8 (i sup­pose because it was mis­sing the ger­man loca­li­sa­tion). after manually ins­ta­lling 1.1.8, everything was fine and fast and com­pa­ti­ble as ever.

    big thanx to chris, as always!! ;~}

    funtoosh — July 28, 2009 @ 05:54 —

13. I did ins­tall 1.1.8 manually and still nothing. It shows up in my exten­sions but that’s it. I have unins­ta­lled fire­fox and re-installed it and gone through the ins­ta­lla­tion docu­men­ta­tion but still it does not show up. I run win­dows XP. I can live without it but it would be nice if I could get it back

    Bob — July 28, 2009 @ 06:45 —

14. Bob — if the exten­sion is ins­ta­lled, but the tool­bar is not dis­pla­ying then please read this post in the forums.

    Also, please post any further sup­port ques­tions in the forums — blog com­ments are not the place for sup­port as noted in the com­ment gui­de­li­nes below.

    Chris Pederick — July 28, 2009 @ 07:06 —

15. Thanks Chris
    I chec­ked it out but it didn’t help. I will check the forums and post there.

    Bob — July 28, 2009 @ 07:38 —

16. Thanks I finally got it.

    Bob — July 28, 2009 @ 07:57 —

17. Finally I got the update for FF 3.5, somehow the update fai­led every time so I thought you never upda­ted it. I feel hel­pless without this exten­sion Keep up the good work!

    Kristian Hollund — August 10, 2009 @ 12:24 —

18. Nice tool. I like the user agent switch to a robot.

    Peter — September 16, 2009 @ 17:34 —

19. I love user agent. I just need to know on why is that when I close the brow­ser the agent go back to default and do not stay as chec­ked once I re-open the brow­ser again? Thanks.

    Rob

    rob — September 18, 2009 @ 19:50 —

20. rob — please read the FAQ.

    Chris Pederick — September 19, 2009 @ 08:25 —

21. Your site forum seems to be down. I’m get­ting php error mes­sage about /home/758/domains/chrispederick.com/html/blog/wp-content/plugins/bad-behavior/bad-behavior-generic.php missing.

    Richard — September 21, 2009 @ 22:32 —

22. Richard — Thanks — it’s fixed now.

    Chris Pederick — September 21, 2009 @ 23:39 —

23. Great exten­sion, Thanks!

    Zach — September 23, 2009 @ 07:19 —

24. i love both of these exten­sions — they’re steady and often called upon com­pa­nions, have been for years now

    heres an addi­tio­nal use of use­ra­gents­witcher i have actually star­ted to use it for: the­res a web site of mine which i moni­tor with log emails (get an email every­time someone goes to that site). now i dont want to get that email when i go to that site (at dif­fe­rent pla­ces with dif­fe­rent ips) and try out things on that or so. so i simply exc­lude a brow­ser called the regu­lar fire­fox string (Mozilla/5.0 (Win­dows; U; Win­dows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 bla­bla­bla…) and add a code that only i know. thus i can exc­lude my own hits to that site and am not nothe­red by the log emails.

    please con­ti­nue these awe­some exten­sions!

    johann — September 28, 2009 @ 10:49 —

25. I am not able to down­load this exten­sion. In my fire­fox I try all the ways to down­load. But still not able to down­load. Plz send me the extension.

    Amit — October 1, 2009 @ 22:08 —

26. Amit — Please read the help.

27. Sea­Mon­key 2 was offi­cially relea­sed a cou­ple of days ago and when I try to ins­tall, I get the mes­sage ‘not com­pa­ti­ble with Sea­Mon­key 2.0′. From what I read in the release notes (for Sea­Mon­key) they have moved it a lot clo­ser to Fire­fox. I’m gues­sing that the pro­blem may be more to do with the checks than with the code. Any plans to test it against Sea­Mon­key 2.0?

    Roger Cornwell — October 30, 2009 @ 09:44 —

28. Roger — Please see my post in the forums.

    Chris Pederick — October 30, 2009 @ 10:05 —

29. Just to update my pre­vious post: I unpac­ked the XPI file and edi­ted the install.rdf to change the maxi­mum Sea­mon­key release to 2.0 and then pac­ked the result, ins­ta­lled, and it seems to be wor­king. The code I chan­ged is right near the end and now reads:

    {92650c4d-4b8e-4d2a-b7eb-24ecf4f6b63a}
    2.0
    1.0

    (It’s the line with Max­Ver­sion that I changed.)

    So thanks to Chris for this very help­ful code. To every­body else: your mileage may vary, this is an expe­ri­ment, don’t blame me (or Chris) if it doesn’t work.

    Roger Cornwell — October 30, 2009 @ 10:11 —

30. Sorry — I had a search around and did not spot your post. And also sorry to learn you’ve been under the weather, I hope you’re bet­ter now. And here, I hope, is the code I should have pos­ted (I had not rea­li­sed that Word­Press would take my input as HTML):

    <em:targetApplication>
    <Desc­rip­tion>
    <em:id>{92650c4d-4b8e-4d2a-b7eb-24ecf4f6b63a}</em:id>
    <em:maxVersion>2.0</em:maxVersion>
    <em:minVersion>1.0</em:minVersion>
    </Description>
    </em:targetApplication>

31. I would like to add an option to recharge the menu style sheets CSS. Like this: http://david.dojotoolkit.org/recss.html

32. Cris­tianthee­vil — ‘Reload Exter­nal Con­tent’ is already on the to-do list.

    Chris Pederick — November 26, 2009 @ 07:34 —

33. Web­De­ve­lo­per 1.1.8 throws an unne­ces­sary “War­ning: Mis­sing clo­sing ’)’ in nega­tion pseudo-class ‘a’.” which is trig­gers by the jQuery selec­tor syn­tax: $(‘a[target=“_blank”]:not(li a)’)

    The :not() syn­tax in jQuery is enhan­ced, com­pa­red to the CSS stan­dard, so it appears to me, as if WD puts out a war­ning, since it checks for CSS com­pliance only.

    I’m just saying! Greaaaat tool, though!!! Thanks a lot!

    maxpower9000 — December 11, 2009 @ 01:05 —

34. maxpower9000 — The errors all come from the brow­ser and are just dis­pla­yed by the exten­sion so any issues should be repor­ted to Mozilla.

    Chris Pederick — December 11, 2009 @ 08:13 —

35. Thx for share this big Addon.
    Glad Christ­mas! And Happy New Year .
    The Ger­man Trans­la­tion is ok.

    Thx Thx Thx
