Need web developer for Firefox 8

I have Firefox 8.0.1 and really need the 'web devloper' addon. when trying to download it, it says it isn't for Firefox 8.0.1.
Is there an updated 'web developer' for vs 8.0.1?
If I uninstall vs 8.0.1 and download an older version, will I lose my bookmarks, etc?
Thank you,

Checking for updates doesn't seem to be working at this moment.<br />
I did some testing and I do not see a response.
You can download the extension and edit the file install.rdf in the XPI file (ZIP archive) and change the maxVersion to 9.0 or more.

I need to migrate an XPI developed for Firefox 2.x on Solaris to Firefox 3.6 for Windows

I need to migrate an XPI developed for Firefox 2.x on Sun Solaris to Firefox 3.6 on Windows. The XPI archive contains a XUL file which gives many error messages when I use the XPI addon:
C:\>firefox.exe -trmail-view
What would be the best approach? Try to modify existing files XUL/JS files or start with the new JS files from Firefox 3.6 Windows?
Existing XPI contains files:

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data. See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

Need User Manual for Firefox

Need User Manual for Firefox.

Hi hiddensmiles,
We have a whole section here on [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-install-firefox-and-get-started Getting Started with Firefox]. It should cover all the basics from downloading and install to using the core features.
If you have other questions, be sure to search the Knowledge Base. There is tons of great information there. If you can't find your answer there, you can always ask the volunteers here on the forums.
Hopefully this helps!

How to promote my book "Beginning Web Development for Smartphones" on iBook

I have published a book "Beginning Web Development for Smartphones" on iBookStore. The book explains how to use PHP, MySQL and jQTouch for developing mobile web applications. Can anybody guide me the way to promote the above said book?

Web development for iPhone

I'm looking to develop a web site for use by the iPhone. Is there a best practice around development? Should I be detecting and redirecting to a dedicated location (http://iphone.name.com), or detecting and using an iPhone friendly CSS file?

Apple offers extensive documentation and guidance for application and web development for the iPhone, and an iPhone software development kit will be available early next year.
You can register at no charge to be an 'entry level' developer and gain access to the iPhone Development Center by going to this page. The iPhone Reference Library, Tech Talk Videos and sample code projects are all available once you have logged in using your Apple ID.

HT202681 Is Flash Player only for Safari? Do I need Flash Player for Firefox?

Is Flash Player only for Safari? Do I need Flash Player for Firefox?

A Flash tip to help avoid security issues later: There are known scammer who fake a "Flash is out of date" pop-up that leads you to a site that installs malware or can compromise your private data. If you see a pop-up in FF saying you need to upgrade Flash, the only safe thing to do is go to this official Adobe site:
https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
and follow the downloads instructions there. It will show the currently available version. You can quickly tell what version is on your computer by doing System Preference > Flash Player and selecting the "Updates" tab.
Do NOT choose to update Flash from any pop-up. Here are several articles with more info on the "Fake Flash" issue:
http://www.thesafemac.com/?s=flash&submit=Search
Fake Flash pop-ups commonly contain grammatical or spelling errors. One common one is "Failure to install this update may cause your computer to crush." Using only the official Adobe site I linked plus checking your current version via System Preferences will avoid your having to figure out if a pop-up is fake.

I would like to fix a bug, but I need to know the leading developer for Firefox sync. I need verification of a Mozilla dev for a class project prerequisite.

I found bug 859889 on Bugzilla, I would like to develop a patch for it. In my software development class, my professor asked us to get the permission of a leading developer for our project proposal. If you can direct me to such a developer, that would be great. The dev in question should also have access to Firefox Android's code base, as to apply the patch if completed and accepted.
The url to the bugzilla page is "https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=859889".

I guess that is you that has already posted [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=859889#c1 Bug 859889#c1]
Presumably you already have the C++ and other skills to tackle this. I suggest you look at and follow links from

Does that help ?

How to setup AutoFill as a web developer for IPAD (html)

Hey all,
This is my 1st post on Apple's Forums. Not sure if i can get web-develment info here on Safari but gonna try.
So I trying to get AutoFill working as a Web Developer across different browser platforms for a contact form webpage.
We are esp interesting about mobile to make it easier to fill out hte long contact page on mobile phones which would improve our website's success.
I got IPHONE AutoFill working on a simple HTML contact form.
But on the same webpage form, IPAD I'm having a heck of a time trying to get the AutoFill working.
My User Agent is:
Mozilla/5.0 (Ipad: CPU OS 7_1_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/537.51.2 (KTHML... Like Gecko) Version/7.0 Mobile/11D201 Safari/9537.53
Here are all the bases I cover for Safari and other browsers:
1. Some use regex on the input name attr. so like an attribute of <input name="firstname"/> or fname,etc helps some browsers figure out the context for AutoFill.
2. Chrome uses a nice context attribute 'autocompletetype="given-name" so dont need to depend on the browser to figure it out via Regexes. also threw on x-autocompletetype maybe if some browsers are viewing it as experimental and decide to implement it as an 'experimental' attribute. This works well for Chrome/Desktop browser.
3. Also added Placeholder text as some places recommended it.
4. The label's text is also named nice if some browsers do a regex on the label text to provide context <label for="firstname">First Name</label> <input id="firstname" name="firstname" /> (dont know of any specific browsers that do this... just saying, all bases are covered)
Here is my super basic form that covers all of those:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36600570/html-autofillform-test/index.html
Yet on the IPAD, I don't see the Autofill button on the keyboard when I click on the 'First Name' input like how IPHONE has it (and yes Autofill is turned on in the Settings->Safari->Passwords&Autofill area, and right below that 'on' setting, I picked my contact to associate AutoFill in which has my name/address/phone/email info).
Why does Ipad-Safari not AutoFill like its supposed to. Do others get that AutoFill button on their IPAD testing the website above and if so, what version are you using (can get version by going to http://www.whatsmyuseragent.com/)
Thanks for any advice!,
Ari

Don't think there's an automatic way to do this, but if you tap the top right corner of your screen it should take you straight to connectivity and you can disconnect wifi there ? Also why do you want to disconnect from the web, is it to save battery or data charges ? A 'smartphone' is of little use without a data package !

Web development for C or C++ hackers?

I was wondering if there is some kind of web framework like django for C and C++ programmers.
I already know quite well those two languages and I know how long it takes learn a language WELL (overall if complex and liberal as C++),
so I was wondering if I could start web development with those languages.
Or it is better I start studying Python?
Advices? Ideas?
thanks

I'm not sure it's "scary". It's certainly more work to do properly
You basically have 4 options:
A) Use CGI. Simple, because your app is spawned once per request. So, there is no real need to do advanced resource management. OTOH, it's kinda slow - because a new process is spawned for each request. Wikipedia is your friend - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface
B) Use FCGI. More complex. Your app stays resident and communicates with the web server via a socket (UNIX or TCP/IP). Read introduction, and find a nice C++ lib, at http://cryp.to/publications/fastcgi/
C) Write a "native" web server module -- the howto will differ wildly between servers.
D) Write your own web server with the app baked in. Ouch.

Can I setup a rule to auto forward or move messages in Microsoft Outlook Web Access for Firefox?

I am using Firefox 5.0 and Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access for email.
Is it possible to setup a rule to automatically move messages to a different folder, or to forward message to a different folder?
Thanks!

i haven't done it myself, i just pointed you to the article. Try it. If it does not work, you can Restore the Default settings. Save several Screenshots of the Default Settings to your Desktop to help you in case you want to Revert to the Default Settings.

How do I uninstall Sothink Web VideoDownloader for Firefox?

I installed Sothink Web Video Downloader for Firefox on my Mac and would like to get rid of it, but I can't figure out how to do it. I have gone through all my files looking for the installer, but can't seem to find it. Should I uninstall Firefox? How do I do that?
Thanks.

I had the same problem. Here is how to fix it. Open browser select "Tools" in menu bar then "Add-ons" then "Extensions" on the left. It should be there and you can remove it. Hope this helps. I'm using a Ubuntu distro.

So are we close to getting a version of Smart Web Printing for Firefox or not?

Subject says it all - when, oh when, will we get SWP for Firefox 3+ ?

I'm tired of waiting for HP to supprt this add-on for FF 3.0 and just want SWP gone! From FireFox and my machine.
It started as a very useful add-on but, since it is not being supported, I want it gone
There is no option to uninstall it in my extension manager (it's faded out) and I can not find anything under add/remove programs in XPPro.
I even started a new profile, and it still shows up in the extension manager.
Is there a removal tool or how do I get rid of it? What should I look for in the FF profile.
I thinks I was able to use SWP once before the FF update. I never really got a chance to learn how to use it. Now it is useless.
Why offer something that you are not going to support HP?
Great idea HP, poor follow-thru

Has a fix developed for Firefox 36 which BROKE Yahoo Toolbar in Windows 7 & 8 while Firefox 37 broke Yahoo Toolbar for Linux ?

Yahoo Toolbar (added from Firefox Add-ons) stopped working when I updated to Firefox 36 on both my Windows 7 & 8 computers so I RE-Installed Firefox 35 via a 3rd party download site. I didn't have the same problem on My Linux Computers until today when My Linux Computer UPDATED to Firefox 37. Now the only link which will show up on the Yahoo Toolbar is my "Mail" link.
It seems (based upon my research) that Mozilla is trying to sweep this screw-up under the carpet by blaming Yahoo, and yet they continue to display the link/add-on in their "Add-on Repository" ! Maybe Mozilla need to find a better Janitor cause the current one can't seem to See or even Smell the manure they're shoveling !
Don't get me wrong. I've been using Firefox & Yahoo Toolbar for 8+ years and been a fan of both, but I ditched Micro$oft Window$ because of Compatibility Issues within their own Software Programs. I would like to continue to use Firefox and Yahoo toolbar, But if they can't manage to work together and find a solution I WILL solve the problem by "Ditching Them Both" in favor of another provider and take all my current tech customers with me when I do. FYI, they number in the thousands.

Perhaps you do notice the "'''By [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/yahoo/ Yahoo!]'''" under the Yahoo Toolbar extension name.
It may not be obvious to everybody at first but the addons.mozilla.org is a hosting site for Extensions and also Themes (both image and complete), dictionaries, search engines etc.
The vast majority of Extensions being hosted on addons.mozilla.org are by a third-party author unless it says a author like [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/mozilla/ Mozilla] or [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/mozilla-labs5133025/ Mozilla Labs].
Moderators here (unless they have Administrator tag also) are users like yourself who have been entrusted with moderator abilities.
No need to be rude as I certainly was not. Also mild rudeness does not get more attention in getting help but more likely to be ignored as volunteers spend whatever time they have to help others instead,

I have to turn off ZOne ALarm web security for Firefox to open properly

I have Firefox 5.0 and Zone Alarm Extreme Security (10.0.246.000). When I open Firefox I get the welcome screen, as if I have just downloaded Firefox (no home page and no bookmarks - options are set at default). So, I close the browser and disable Zone Alarm Web Security and reopen Firefox. My home page and bookmarks load properly, options as previously set. I turn on ZA Web Security and all is fine until I close Firefox - then I have to do this all over again.

P.S. This copy of a post by BadK_FFox (from last week) may also help:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/840168<br>
Firefox 5 will not start with Zone Alarm Ver 10.0.240.000<br>
'''Quote:'''
I'm running Win7 x64 with ZoneAlarm Extreme Security 10.0.241.000
I had the same problem with Firefox 4. After turning off ForceField Toolbar, it started working fine.
Then I updated to Firefox 5 and it wouldn't start, instead it was showing an error message from ZA...
I searched mozilla support and followed the instructions here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up on the topic"Firefox does not start after updating with ZoneAlarm ForceField enabled".
The correct instructions for this ZA version should be: "Internet -> Web Security -> Settings, and click Clear Virtual Data"
After that I could open Firefox again! Then I realized it was still version 4... I installed the update, and everything went smooth. Checked again if Forcefield toolbar was inactive (it was) and opened a few pages, closed Firefox and opened again. After a while it wouldn't open...
AGAIN the "Clear Virtual Data" did the trick...
This time I clicked on Settings (next to "Clear Virtual Data") -> Advanced Settings, and turned off "Enable Virtualization".
Until ZA get a fix for this, either we turn it off or clear virtual data every few moves...

Need web address for email redirector!!! Help

Ok, I am a newbie to the blackberry. My work will not allow me (via their enterprise server) to connect so I want to know how to set up the email on my computer and leave it on. It says I need to have a web address from my provider (Verizon for the phone). What is it?
Also I do not see email redirector on my blackberry desktop software that came with my phone.
Can some one help me with my two problems and give me step by step instructions?

I have a personal email account through Comcast that I want to have my work emails forwarded to
For my Comcast email I use Outlook to view them, not the web based email
At work I have Oulook as my email program
Try adding your Comcast email address as an account use: mail.comcast.net for pop3 and smtp.comcast.net. For outgoing.
This will give you give you access to your comcast email at work. If you are not able to , this is verification of the IT policy.
They have a BB server, but will not let me use it because I do not have a work issued phone (very common in most BES companies)
When I create a rule in Outlook at work to forward to my Comcast email it does not work (IT guy thinks there may be a setting blocking it from the IT dept.) This is most likely why you cannot forward your email. IF an IT policy is in effect to block forwarding than neither
option, Comcast or Google will work.
If I try to use the Outlook web URL in my BB browser it will not work either
I believe you will only be able to view emails and not file to folders from OWA, I need to look it up.
I believe their accounts are not a POP3 account
If you mean your WORK email account, probably not.
I went in to my web mail to use mail box manager but it says put in a comcast email address, a POP3 address, or an IMAP address
Mail.comcast.net is the pop3 address for Comcast
So based on all of this here are my questions:
Do I need to find out how our work email accounts are structured? (POP3, or some other conf.)
If I try loading the gmail as you suggest won't I still have the same problem having it not work if the rule I need to create in my work email is not functioning?
Sorry if I sound like a pain, but I am at a loss here and I am wondering if technically I am not getting what you are saying, or I am truly not going to be able to get my work emails on my BB.
What do you suggest now for me? Was I clear on all the facts I know and do I need to find out anything else from work?
The entire process hinges on the IT policy. If they won't let you forward your email, or add email accounts, you will
Not be able to circumvent the policy and won't be able to use either Comcast or Google to receive your work email.
