Hi All, I am trying to capture a page load event while developing a extension for firefox. I am using ProgressListeners for this. I cannot use the onLocation change event because it fires an event every time the user switches the tab. I just want to log every new page he has visited. OnProgressChange works for me, but this is fired m...
I want to associate some actions with keys (of a keyboard) and then modify the contents of a webpage loaded in the browser.
