• Any plans for changes to the API of Extension for Thunderbird?

  I was wondering if there are plans for the adoption of a more friendly/purely JS API extension, similar to the Firefox SDK or WebExtensions in Thunderbird?

  This has been discussed recently in the Mozilla planning mailing list.

  See https://mail.mozilla.org/pipermail/tb-planning/2015-August/thread.html#3949 for the Archives of the thread.

• Geolocation API works with sandboxed iframes or provide an error

  The navigator.geolocation.watchPosition function call does not work with sandboxed iframes where allow-same-origin is not specified (so the iframe counts as a unique and anonymous origin). I assumed that in so doing the iframe in sandbox inherits is not permission to use the geolocation API to the site that contains is a smart decision. Personally, I wish I had a way to create sandboxed iframes that can also use the geolocation API, but I don't understand if that is not implemented. However, a sandbox or an iframe also does not receive an authorization error when using the geolocation API that is completely wrong and makes it really difficult to debug.

  Perhaps, the https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=675533 bug is related somehow?

  I think that it is beyond the scope of support. You can file a new bug and see how it goes: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/

• Will there be a http api to create a new conversation Hello Firefox?

  A new conversation in Firefox Hello so far can be created by clicking on a button as described here:
  https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/Firefox-Hello-video-and-voice-conversations-online#w_start-a-conversation

  Y at - it already a http api to create a new conversation? If not: are there plans to create a?
  The api should accept a POST request and reply with the url of the newly created conversation.

  Please note: docs depict v1, but endpoint https://loop.services.mozilla.com is still running to v0

• Is there an API for Firefox search of certificates in the storage of certificates of Firefox?

  I'm trying to find an open source API available to search for a specific certificate issued by an issuer in my storage of certificates. Do you know something that could be useful to me?

  Thanks in advance!

  The db should be cert8.db and it's accessible with a software able to read db. To be sure: profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data

  These are the Tools https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../Tools#dbck

  I don't know if there is a api. Try the DND.

• How to fix Firefox 31, 0-1 crashing on the Audio-Api - for example on quizlet.

  Dear Firefox team,

  Since yesterday (after the updates), Firefox hangs when it tries to play a sound. I think because of the Audio Api? It crashes on Google-Mail and Quizlet.

  For quizlet, I found a site where they describe how their sound: http://quizlet.com/help/how-does-audio-work-on-quizlet

  When I opened the file audio-test firefox crashes instantly without an errormessage. Here you get the example file: http://a.s.quizlet.com/en.mp3?v=5 & b = SWYgeW91IGNhbiBoZWFyIHRoaXMsIGF1ZGlvIGlzIG5vdCBiZWluZyBibG9ja2VkLg & s = LAhrMA-0

  Can I do something about it? Its really hard for me to understand why it crashes.

  Hey again once, unfortunately I can't reproduce the problem on a windows pc and the console log is not very descriptive (at least for my level of knowledge).

  If you can reproduce the same breaks down while you use firefox in safe mode, I would recommend filing a bug to the bugzilla.mozilla.org of this regression, so that developers have a closer look.

• API social does not work for me

  Social buttons API (FBchat) in are not available since the update to FF Aurora 29. The sidebar is available!

  The support article that covers 'FBchat', How does Facebook Messenger for Firefox work?, should probably be updated to Firefox Aurora.

  Firefox Aurora is a pre-beta test version, that is, it is still a 'work in progress'. I'm not test it myself. If you get a better response from someone familiar with Aurora, this is a bug report, that I found on the sidebar API Social, in which case it is useful:

  • Bug 960198 - no obvious option to display the sidebar SocialAPI

  Here's dawn release notes, pointing to more information on the new UI of Firefox:

• Customize the black guest "* is full screen" when using the API of full-screen mode full screen shutter?

  The prompt on the top of the screen is so big and not very attractive. Y at - it any way/API to change his style?

  Another problem is that if the mode full screen is enabled on a machine with two monitors, you can toggle focus on programs in another monitor. But whenever you focus on the browser full screen, black prompt is displayed again, which is annoying.

  Hi fordbzd,

  This could be a big question for https://www.stackoverflow.com or https://www.mdn.com

  These are third party, but they are nice places to start:

  • DND https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../Using_full_screen_mode
  • http://www.SitePoint.com/HTML5-full-screen-API/

  It depends on the api used as well to track down the call for the notification of full screen or a video player:

• W3C Gamepad API - where is it?

  Mozilla appears to ignore the official W3C stipulated Gamepad API in favor of their own solution. The specification of the W3C is by far the best solution for the development of games (for reasons I won't specify here).

  The appropriate W3C Gamepad API will never be available Firefox? If so, when exactly?

  Thank you.

  There is support in Firefox 24 and later, but it is disabled and hidden behind a pref (dom.gamepad.enabled)

  See:

• How can I get rid of the undesirable social API in Firefox?

  I'm looking for non-social Firefox edition or version. I want to follow the latest updates of FF, but without any integrated services such as social spyware and any other type of malware. Options to disable / enable are not sufficient for safety and security in Firefox is corrupted by the social API.

  Social services and features must be implemented only as a simple optional extensions and nothing more.

  Thank you! "the-edmeister"

  I'll check forum unofficial builds. I am also interested in creating my own version.
  I'm very grateful if you could give me guidance and advice where to start to build own. I'm using C and C++, JavaScript, Python and this should be enough to begin to explore and modify the source code of Firefox. I'm very motivated to start to do that.

• How can I disable the Google Maps message "Google has disabled the use of maps API for this application? This as Microsoft tries to crush Netscape?

  In the last day or two (8 August 2012) each time I start Firefox (14.01.01) I get a pop up that says "Google has disabled using the maps API for this application. He directs me to Google Maps terms & Conditions, but does not provide a solution to disable the pop up. I tried to disable Google Maps as an Add on Firefox, but still not the context menu.
  It is easy to fix the problem or is this an attempt by Google to force me to Chrome, much like trying to crush Netscape in favour of Microsoft's Internet Explorer?

  I thought about it. It is not the browser itself. It happened that I had two pages that open when I started the browser (at home and at work) and it was one of them who had a Google map. They have had to fix their Web site.
  Sorry Google, to think that you were an evil Empire!

• Portege M400 - where to find the Bios 3.80 changelog

  Hello

  is there a place where I can find the changelog of the version of the bios 1.80 to 3.80? should I upgrade?
  -do you have any experience by changing the fan? mine makes sounds that belong not here...
  -How long in your experience can take to get a response from toshiba support by e-mail? IM waiting 3 days now... :(

  Thank you

  Hello!

  I can t find a log of the changes on the Toshiba site also but why do you want to upgrade the BIOS? In my opinion a BIOS update should only be done if you have problems with your laptop or something else.
  Never touch a running system! ;)

  Before you exchange the fan you need to clean using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust from the cooling fans, and you should do from time to time.

  Good bye
