Dang it. My one chance at AT Forum Glory, and you stole it from me.

I started working on it before I saw your post. It's still a bit ugly. It could use some work.

haha, I was just kidding. I'm being lame. More power to you! Although I might make an extension on top of yours that says MrChad sux. Cool?

Nice.......I like it. Good job!

Thanks. Things that could use some work:

* The icon is a bit ghetto at the moment
* No proper update URL ... perhaps it can be submitted to mozdev.org?
* Quick keys are entirely random, and may not work (haven't tested)
* Other AT links to include?

oh man, i thought it was going to link to the actual topics as well.

Man I just figured out why mine wasn't working. I had the &entercat=y in my links and the & sign was screwing with it I think. Oh well.

XULs are XML files and have to play by the same rules. You have to escape your ampersands like this: "&". Otherwise the XUL file will be invalid.

Woah, that is cool.

AND definitely doable I think, for the AT Forums. If I have time this weekend, I'll play around with it. I don't think it would be that hard at all!

And when I get it done, all of the AT Forums will love me, and they will scream my name as they carry me through the streets......





KeyserSoze

Let me know if you figure this out I would be very interested in the results.

TIA

Its linked right above you

Works great! The OP needs to include the link. MrChad, you might want to post something about this in the Software forum as well.

[Edit] The OP beat me by a minute.

MrChad should still post something in Software IMHO.

I was working on this at the same time, so I guess I'll post mine too. The only thing that I haven't worked on is renaming a lot of the stuff from NV... but anything that you actually see on the extension has been fixed.

Give suggestions and I'll change it too. Tongiht I'll work on changing all the names to Anandtech, etc..

I'm open to options.. not sure what I would change in mine besides the back-end code nobody sees anyways. Unless people want something more/complain I might not even up date the back-end code since it's kind of pointless.

 

[Kelemvor]

Only options would be wether to just list all the forums in one big list or to group them into Hardware forums, Software Forums, etc.
