User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.8 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.8 This is an extension for Firefox 0.9 - 0.10. This extension when installed changes all "Post Reply" links in an IGN Boards thread into "IGNBQuick Reply" links that when clicked draws a textarea for typing a reply into and also buttons for adding IGN Boards mark up code (mark up code is only available to IGN Insider subscribers). One of the buttons provided is "IGNBQuote" that will grab an already posted reply in the thread and place it, specially formatted, into the reply textarea for quoting in your reply. There is also a "IGNBQuick Preview" button that grabs the text in the reply textarea and displays what it would look like if posted. The IGN Boards do not natively have a quote feature, and normally writing and previewing replies requires loading new pages. Supported IGN Boards forums are http://boards.ign.com/ http://vnboards.ign.com/ and http://boards.theforce.net/ http://www2.latech.edu/~dad015/ignboardsquote/IGNBQ2.1.xpi Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. This way of submitting extensions is crazy, but it's what http://update.mozilla.org/faq/ said to do.

Moving these off my list of code bugs, I'll work on them as I get time, and i'm working on getting some more editors to help out. :-) These need to be verified to work properly with the 1.0PR / latest-nightly (if it's for 1.0RC1). Feel free to test and comment, that'll help speed up the process.

Alright, let's see if I can clear things up. I'll include pictures. :)
Without the extension installed, to reply to a thread you click a
"Post Reply" link in the thread which takes you to the reply page
where you type your reply into a textarea and then submit it. With the
extension all the "Post Reply" links, which appear under every message
in the thread, change into "IGNBQuick Reply" links that when clicked
make a textarea appear under that message. Here you can type a reply
as usual from within the thread (making it "Quick"), but also there
are buttons you can click that will automatically add IGN Board Mark
Up, HTML-like code to add simple formating to a message, to your
reply. There is an "IGNBQuote" button that grabs the message that you
clicked "IGNBQuick Reply" under and lets you quote it. Also, there is
an "IGNBQuick Preview" button that takes what you've typed into the
reply textarea and converts and displays it (under the reply textarea)
as it would appear if you posted it. Basically a preview.
That's the main functionality. Many people have been using it already
so I know it works. Just make sure your system time and timezone are
set correctly or else the IGN Boards will reject your post attempt (a
security feature). Also, the Mark Up I was talking about can only be
used by IGN Insider subscribers. Mark Up is the stuff inside [ ]
brackets.
Let me know if you're having any other troubles.

another bounce mailbox rescue. For future reference, you need to click the link
at the top of the email, and add comments to the bug using the form on the web
page. Replying to the email goes into a mailbox that is only there to collect
bounce notices for trouble-shooting purposes, and your reply will only make it
to the bug if I happen to notice it and feel generous to post it for you. :)

I'm seriously confused by y'all's emails. I'm never sure what exactly they mean.
And I moved the extension. I made a quick "homepage" here:
http://www2.latech.edu/~dad015/IGNBQ/
So is this thing going to get added ever? One of my reasons for making
this was to get the many many IGN Board users to switch to Firefox. I
love you guys. :x
