Hi

I'm trying to make some FireFox extensions but am having some trouble.  So far, I'm really suprised how easy the whole thing looks, just compressed JS files, I really thought it would be harded than that!

Anyway in FireFox im uninstalling and installing the extension im making, however when I unsintall all my extensions they all say "wil be uninstalled after restarting firefox"

They won't dissapear whatever I do, reboot, restart FF, uninstall and reinstall FF...  Does anyone know how to remove all extensions manually?

There is a file is your documents and settings under the mozilla section in extensions called some or other .rdf.

You can find extensions installed in there.

When that happened to me it was an error of not upgrading firefox correctly.

Please post a good tutorial when you have finished writing the extension LOL

Almost there :)

I'm making a SMS toolbar, I figure lots of people might download it if it's on the official moz dev site, help propell C4.  C4's taking off quite nicely now!  The scripts I offer really really helped (thanks to Mart for the .net one!)

What did you finally go with for payment processing?

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

Paypal for now, no point doing anything else until I get more consistant sales, as it just costs too much unfortunatly!  When I get more sales and when they become more consistant then I will shop around again.

I ty my best to avoid monthly fees where possible when Im starting up something like this, otherwise you can quickly find yourself sinking.

Anyway I've just about finished my extension!

Wow this is much easier than I thought but it's taking a while getting to grips with it all.

I'm working on a much more intelligent system now, it will automatically load you address book of the c4sms server!  How very handy.
