[serious] FireFox: Warn before accessing site
Hello all!
Does anyone know how to get Firefox to warn me before entering a specific website. I sometimes need to access our live server but it is so similar to my dev server I sometimes make changes on the live site :eek2:
I need to be able to just throw up a "Your accessing the live server" message.
Thanks
ILMV

How about putting a big message on the dev website. If you don't see it, you're in the live one.
Alternatively, you could take 2 seconds to glance at your ADDRESS BAR.
Re: [serious] FireFox: Warn before accessing site
Both of those points are not an option.
I need something like this, but not black ;D, of which throws up a barrier before I access the site.

One method is greasemonkey. Create a script that pops up a box when you enter the site.
Example
Code:
// ==UserScript==
// @name Something Test
// @namespace testing
// @include http://www.something.com/
// ==/UserScript==
(function () {
alert ("hi");
})();

Has the address bar been banned in your company?

Lol, that's basically what I was asking. I thought perhaps he's so brainy that his neck can't support his head enough to look up that high. :ehh:
Re: [serious] FireFox: Warn before accessing site
The systems look exactly the same and the URLs are all very similar... so no.
So go forth and suck it.

I have nothing more useful to input, but I needed to post this image somewhere... Hope it helps with your problem :)
Re: [serious] FireFox: Warn before accessing site
You might have been better off posting it in the 'fail' thread, rather than one with a serious tag.
Re: [serious] FireFox: Warn before accessing site
Instead of building a complete script you could install adblock and block the live site.
When you want to view the live site just rightclick the adblock icon and tick the whitelist button; unticking when you're leaving the live site.
Not the most beautiful solution, but at least one...

True.. but when has anything I've ever done been useful?
On the more serious side, you can colour the tab depending on the site. Its not a box that pops up or anything, but you should be able to notice a change in colour, especially if you make it the only site to change.

I have even gone to the extent to write a greasemonkey script to remove all spam posts made by Kregg from my screen, but when I do that the entire CC dissapears?!
