Nice little add-on. Do exactly what's advertised.

Great addition to Firefox/Iceweasel if you need to visualize Markdown files from ftp servers or http directories.

Only one minor issue: the page title (as displayed in the application title bar) is made of the first characters of the file. With inelegant results when the Mardown file start with an "underline" style header -- in that case, you end up having a bunch of ========== in the title.

I'm using on Firefox 41.0.1 and I haven't any problem. Works good, easy and soft.
Thanks for all. :)

There are multiple flavors of markdown syntax. I did not find information about which syntax is supported by the addon, neither on this addon page, nor on the project page. That would be helpful to have.

For small documentation snippets it is a great tool, better than raw text files, because the relevant constructs are supported and look nice: images, simple tables, code, pre, bold, italic, etc.

It is not so great for bigger documents, as in-document-references are not supported. It autogenerates the ids for the headings ‒ #foo becomes <h1 id="foo">foo</h1> ‒ but it wont generate the href attribute on links ‒ [go to foo](#foo) becomes <a>go to foo</a>. Worse, using raw html links will also not work. From <a href="#foo">foo</a> it removes the href attribute! A workaround to prevent scroll scroll is the HeadingsMap Addon.

Other Issues:
It adds an unnecessary outermost div.container.
The css adds margins on left and right side. This can be fixed by editing the css in the xpi of this extension in the firefox profiles folder).
The title of the tab shows the contents of more than the first line of the md file (eg. '<title>======= loremipsum').

Very useful. No problems on Linux (Kubuntu). I did not have to tweak anything and it works perfect. Thank you!

Works for most .md files. While it might not be perfect, I really admire the great act of filling the vacuum.
@developer
Kindly correct the errors mentioned by someone here. That makes this the one and only addon in its true sense.

but, This cant convert "`#include &amp;lt;functional&amp;gt;`" into "&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;#include &amp;amp;lt;functional&amp;amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;"

日本人なので日本語で書きますが、&lt;や&gt;がエスケープされません。これを除けばとても便利なアドオンです。
UTF-8エンコードのテキストファイルを読み込んで見た結果、2バイトでも文字化けしませんし。

5 start for it's the only one I can find that fit me ^_^.

just notice the (for V1.5) in the comment below. Author has relased newer version on github, just follow "Add-on home page" link in the left panel.

For someone who want to update it yourself:
1. Download the xpi file, extract it to a folder
2. Download the latest marded.js from https://github.com/chjj/marked. It's in the lib folder
3. Replace the one in xpi with the latest one
4. Compressed the extracted files to zip and rename it with xpi, then install it.

It's simple (nothing's configurable) and gets the job done. The style sheet is fine. And it *can* read local files. So far, so good :)

The only drawback is that tab title is a hard-coded "Markdown Viewer" string. Among all the possibilities I could think of (file path, file name, first line, first title... or a combination of those) that's probably among the less useful.

I find it, and it`s work on Firefox 24 x Ubuntu 12.04.3 (GNU/Linux).

If there is not yet an existing RDF node for 'text/plain' add it, and add "md" as a file extension.

$ vi ~/.mozilla/firefox/*default/mimeTypes.rdf
......
<RDF:Description RDF:about="urn:mimetype:text/plain"
NC:value="text/plain"
NC:fileExtensions="md"
NC:description="Text Document">
<NC:handlerProp RDF:resource="urn:mimetype:handler:text/plain"/>

Great little extension (and the workaround for Linux users for .md files https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/markdown-viewer/reviews/423328/ works nicely).
