Firefox extension

InFormEnter is absolutely a kicker. Any time there's a box to fill out on a page, it lets you pop up your own list of words or phrases or whatever you like, and lets you poke any one into the box. It doesn't care what the box is called, or whether the form design is standards-compliant or not. This is brilliantly simple.

Only problem is I can't get it to download. I'm leery of direct installs from websites... not sure that anti-virus/worm works under those conditions.

I love to cook with wine.      Sometimes I even put it in the food.

My favorite is Flashblock. It put blank boxes in place of annoying flash ads. You click on any box if its something you want to see or use. And the ol' ESC key stops GIF animations (stock feature).

Hello Jim,

Easter dinner? We had ours yesterday. Five-course meal for eight people, all made from scratch by my wife. I have no idea how she does that.

We had nine. Son with cancer did not attend... he's still too weak. Daughter in Yuma couldn't make it due to Republican party commitments... escorting McCain around Yuma :-(

Same here. We had pomegranate martini's, shrimp, fruit, cheese, etc. for appetizers, racks of lamb, ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, multi-colored green beans, a "bunny" cake, an ice-cream-filled cake and a lemon tart (made from lemons from our own tree).

How do I install it? Windows doesn't seem to know what an xpi file is.

Windows doesn't install it... Firefox does. Just go to this page and click "install now."

Then, in Fox, click Tools, Extensions, then doubleclick InFormEnter. Edit the dummy lines in the box to be whatever strings you'd ever want to enter into a form or a search box. Add all you like... they're just strings.

When a web page appears with form slots, there will be a new little doobie you can click to pop up your list; click any line there, and it goes into the form.

While you're at it, nab AdBlock and FlashBlock.

Yup--its a BROWSER plug-in. Drag the file and drop it onto a browser page. (I don't like direct installs either.) XPI==eXtension (Plug-In)

Hello Jim,

Let him know that people are praying for him.

So, does this mean McCain is going to be our next president?

Wow! Getting hungry again...

You are supposed to install it directly from the web site. :) Firefox knows what an xpi file is and automatically installs the extension after downloading if you click the install link.

But if you have it on your C: drive just type file:c:\\ in the URL bar and browse to where you saved the .xpi file and click it. The firefox extension installer should launch then.

Worked. Thanks! But it did still require "Allow websites to install...", even though it was local.
