When ever I earn a reputation, firefox understand and refresh my thumbnail. I want to know how it works and when does firefox take website screenshot for its home page?
Is there any meta tag or something like this to force firefox to take screenshot?
When you earn reputation firefox has no idea. The javascript code (that stackoverflow loaded into firefox when you loaded the page) does. If you don't have the page loaded and the javascript code running nothing will ever see the change. Look up AJAX if you want to know more.
You can force the images to update but it involves loading the page.

Make Firefox create new images for the new tab page
The images will get re-stored as you use the new tab page to go to
those websites again.
Open the new tab page by clicking the + button on the tab strip.
Click on one of the blank images to go to a website. Note, that it works only for left-click, opening in new tab doesn't do the trick.
This is important - let the website finish loading (wait for the spinning green loading icon in the tab to stop).
Open the new tab page again and you will see a new image for the website you just went to.
Repeat this process for the rest of the missing images.

I was just watching some street view images in this website where if you refresh everytime it loads up a new image. Then I realized a image was too beautiful and I was trying to save that image somehow, and it is when I came to know that I can't right click and same street view (Panorama) images. I thought maybe going to developer tools then network might help but it requires to be opened before I load up the page or I have to refresh the page which is disasters in this case.
I know the images loads up on browsers gets saved in the data folder of the browser. But I don't know how to retrieve them or is there any other ways I can save the image?
I am new to Nuxt and decided to give it a shot and to make a webpage.
However I have this weird thing where when I click on a link the Firefox browser shows the page at the bottom, while Chrome scrolls automaticly up.
This only happens with Firefox and have no idea what is causing it, does anyone have a idea?
Ps: I am using the footer component in the default lay-out
Figured out that when i go directly to the url Firefox shows the top at the page as it should, but when using nuxt link it loads and shows the bottom
When I go to the Firefox Add-ons Manager (about:addons), click on Extensions and then click on the "More" link next to one of the installed addons, I see the addon icon next to the title and version of the icon, then immediately below it, there is a second, larger image next to the add-on's description.
Some addons put a larger logo here, others add screenshots. I have checked the "Edit Listing" page and the manifest keys, but I can't figure out how to set this image.
Could someone please point me in the right direction?
So it turns out that this second image is automatically chosen from the screenshots posted on the add-on's listing, only in this case there happened to be a delay of several hours between the creation of the listing and the appearance of the image.
i noticed a strange behaviour of facebook page tab applications, using internet explorer (i tested this only on ie8... with other browser this problem is not present).
If i put javascript code, or background sound in my application, when i goes out from page tab, my application is still running (for example sounds, or javascript activity)...
To show you the issue, i created a page....
Log in into facebook and goes to this page.
http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=252545344807399&sk=app_252545344807399
Don't click like button or anything... you can see a javascript alert each 5 seconds...
next, click on the top facebook logo. You will be redirected to your facebook home, but the url has an hash symbol, because it loads content in ajax.
Wait 5 seconds and tell me if you are still receiving javascript alert from my application in background.
Tell me please if you experience this problem.
Thanks in advance.

I want to write a Firefox extension that acts exactly like the built-in RSS feed scanner (as an exercise). It should do the following:
On each new page / tab load, it should scan the content of the page for RSS feeds
If there are RSS feeds in the page, it should put a button in the location bar that the user can click
On clicking the button, a speech bubble should appear under the button (the way a speech bubble appears under the bookmarks star when you click on it), with information on the feeds and buttons to subscribe to them
So my main questions are:
What is the process to run specific content scripts for specific pages?
What is the process to use the results of those scripts to update the speech bubble for each location bar button for each tab?
Basically, I'm trying to figure out how to do in Firefox what Page Actions are in Google Chrome.
To clarify, I want to replicate this functionality in Firefox: http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/pageAction.html
Please help! :)
This question is similar to this question:
how to have tab-specific xul control with firefox
to have tab specific control. Usually (or maybe I am wrong),the newly added control is the same one across all the different tabs. Change from any tab will change its appearance in all tabs.
still looking for solutions or ideas.
