I'm going to make a Firefox extension. I have knowledge in programming whatsoever, so this will be my first.
But what would you like to see as a Firefox extension? Obviously it would have to be controllable by an extension, so don't ask for less RAM usage! 😉
Also, if you have any tips or links (e.g tutorials), please give them! 🙂
Thanks in advance,

llama

- Access to OS X' built-in spell-checker.

- RSS handling similar to Safari's.

- Block content's by type, with hotkey enabling. Like option-F to get rid of all Flash contents on all pages you visit.

Very good idea. The extension wouldn't be cross platform, though, but that's OK. To anyone with more knowledge in programming: would this be possible?

Well, there is saft, and that would be pretty hard. Maybe for a later project.

Very nice idea. If this hasn't already been done, this is what I am going to do for my first extension. Thank you Mitthrawnuruodo!

An extension that stops the MacOSX version from crashing too often? 🙄
