I want to be able to close tabs on my mobile Firefox, while using Desktop version of Firefox. I thought Tab-sync would make it work, but it doesn't. So now I'm on the quest to fix it with an extension.
I have thought about using sync area of storage (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/storage/sync) but it's not supported on Android.
Do I have to build some external service to send command from Desktop version to that service and then use Mobile Firefox extension to do the polling or there is a better way to utilize fact that I'm logged on both of these devices.
Any ideas please?
I am developing a Firefox addon for making fullpage screenshots of web pages. I know that several good addons that do this are already available, but we have some specific needs so I thought I would try to make my own.
I read that I can do screenshot --fullpage in the Firefox Developer Toolbar. This seems to works well. Can I also call this command from within my addon? If so, how would I go about that?
I've just finished porting a Firefox XUL extension to Firefox SDK, in response to changes coming in a future version of Firefox that would completely break our legacy code. So far, however, I haven't managed to find any guides or documentation for how to migrate users from the older system to the newer one.
Pointing update.rdf to an xpi file generated by the Firefox SDK hasn't produced the desired affect, and simply dragging the xpi into the addon window creates a side-by-side installation.
Any tips on how to gracefully update users to the new architecture?
Looks like this is not only possible, it's very simple: just copy the ID from the install.rdf of the XUL addin and paste it into the ID field of package.json in the SDK addon folder. From reading the docs, I was under the impression the format of the SDK addon ID mattered, looks like I was mistaken.
I integrated google maps as a base layer (wms layer) with openlayers. The system was working properly and all the browsers were displaying the base layer google map properly.
Then I updated firefox. Now the firefox has stopped showing the google maps (wfs layers). But it still show the wfs features.
I tried it in google chorme and internet explorer also (newest versions). Google chrome displays everything properly. But the internet explorer has the same problem.
How could I resolve this?
Thanks
New versions of IE and Firefox are not supporting map outputs if you are using local file paths in your codes. Try using url of the files you want to access or just put all your files into one folder and then use in ie or firefox. That may solve it.

You will find the code of all installed extensions in the firefox profile folder. In my vista machine, it is located at C:\Users\<ur name>\appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<randomstring>.default\extensions\
Unzip the jars and learn the code, edit as per your needs and restart firefox. Remember that when firefox automatically updates the extension, ur changes will be overriden. If something goes wrong, start firefox from cmd with -P switch to create a new profile or goto safe mode using firefox -safe-mode and uninstall and reinstall the extension from its website.
