What does it do?

[Cander]

when you are typing a reply or thread, you can right click in the Message box and you will see a VBForum menu item for the pop up menu.

Adds alot of formatting options for your posts.

[kleinma]

very nice.. you wrote it?

[Cander]

Yeah.

[kleinma]

what did u write it in?

[Cander]

XUL and Javascipt. You can get the code easily if you are curious. The xpi file is just a zip file as well as the .jar file inside which contains the core code inside the content directory in the vbf.jar file.

Found one silly little bug.


It takes away the spaces if you do rainbow higlighting....or is that done on purpose???

Good work Cander. This is the first time I'm using your FF Extension.

[nebulom]

Finally.

Thanks, Cander.

[Cander]

Not done on purpose. Ill look into that noteMe.

[NoteMe]

Thanks.....Maybe I should steal Peets title, and become the Bug Slayer....

[Cander]

Problem. Its not the Extension. Its vBulletin. It strips out the space. Ill look into something to workwaround that on my end though.

[NoteMe]

Hmmm....weird. I can't remember that vBulleting 2 did this...But I remember that vBulletin 2 used to have the letter H as an *...

[Cander]

Fixed it by not trying to color the spaces. RE-download now.

[Valleysboy1978]

This is seriously sweet!
Thanks very much

[NoteMe]

I am downloading some symbol files so I can't restart te bower the next 15minutes, but looking at Valleysboy1978 post, it looks like you did it. Great job.

I hope to soon get all the smilies into the extension so that we can set the Thread typing box style to Basic which shows just the plain old text box. The default Standard and guided modes are horribly slow and choppy.

[NoteMe]

Do you need more icons? THis is a great page to find icons:

Lots of categories....tell me if you need help to pick some out.

I also would like to get the file on a permanent website location so I can use the Update functionality in Firefox so people can just click a button in FF to update

[wossname]

How do you install the bloody thing?

Nothing happens when I try to "open it with FF".

Pretend I am a user or something, really condescend like you got a pair!

[Cander]

What version of FF are you using? Are you using the latest 1.0 like you should if you had a some intelligence?

Did you rename it to a .xpi file instead of .zip like my instructions said?

Hows that?

you should get a popup dialog askin if you want to install Now.

[wossname]

Are you using the latest 1.0 like you should if you had a some intelligence?

W*****.

I will be at some point in the future. How can I possibly be to blame if you don't make your lame programs compatible with the space-time continuum in both future and past probabilities? That's just bad business sense.

[NoteMe]

If you have an older version of FF....look for an older thred with nearly the same thread title...and you will find a version for you...

[Cander]

actually it should still work with .8 or higher. But I cant verify that . Ok I could but dont want to.

[NoteMe]

Hehhehe....nice comment......added to the quote thread..

[Cander]

[ice_531]

blah. Be nice if someone could email me the extension in .xpi form. I cannot change it from zip for whatever reasons

[NoteMe]

Sendt.....I did you two favours in one...I sendt it, and added you to the lesbian convention survey mailing list. Enjoy your stay.

it does not work with the good editor

[Cander]

Whats the "good editor"?

[NoteMe]

He probably mean the filthy WYSIWYG editor...

[Cander]

WYSIWYG is for pansies.

We are all working as a community and i could do with your expertise

Im trying to achieve a similiar thing which will highlight Delphi, HTML & VB Keywords/tags

[NoteMe]

His extension has a VB key higlighter. And it shouldn't be a problem for you to copy paste and do the same for HTML or Delphi code...
