Assegnate 5 su 5 stelle

Hi there,

I haven't had a chance to test this, as I'm not running FF 4 or higher as yet but I was wondering if this will work under 3.6*?

I'd LOVE to find something like this that works well for that series of the browser but am still searching at the moment.

Do you have any potential plans to make it, or your addon update checker, backward compatible? I know that the code difference might make this a formidable task, but it can't hurt to inquire. :-)

At any rate, this looks great and it'll be an essential install when I am ablke to get enough of my 3.6* addons working under FF 6* and up.

Cheers,

NM156

Hi NM 156,

there were plans for supporting FF < 4 and I have tested some sourcechanges but I have killed the plan, cause of many problems with the implementations and dirty coding around it. And lets be honest, FF < 3 its OLD definitely. Mozilla and other Corporations brings more innovations for the web and for us and we should follow it.I know your problem with incompatible addons, I have the same. Thats why I use 3.6.* and FF 4 parallel. But I use FF < 4 very very rarely.

I have 5 (+-2) add-ons that doesnt work under FF 4 and later. But right now I have to accept that unfortunately. I have send mails to the developers of these addons and they said there will be updates but the mail is already a few months onls :(.

So only an advise: you should work with FF > 3 without these addons, searching for alternatives or set the version number higher in the install.rdf file.

Or send them mails. At the moment we only can wait for updates. But you should use more safety, more flexibility and more performance instead of old addons. You will be surprised about new addons for FF 4 ;). And I mean you don`t use Internet explorer 6 or? ;) only a joke.

Best regards

UPDATE:If you would like to use 3.6 instead of 4 you can take a look at MR Tech Toolkit, maybe thats what you are searching for, plus more functions.
