FEBE: New Version & New Name

Posted: Sunday, July 8, 2025 by El Guru in Add-ons, Firefox, Fx 2.0

Note: This entry was published on July 7th under the title FEBE: New Version, New Name. For whatever reasons the entry had problems as I discovered when I went back into shrink the images. I was not able to save any changes, it would just revert back to what it was prior to editing. At [...]

Category/Tag Tweaking

Posted: Sunday, July 8, 2025 by El Guru in Blog News

Just did minor tweaks with a couple of the categories/tags. Both the Add-ons and Tips & Tweaks categories/tags use to be child level under Mozilla Firefox.

Announced on June 11, 2007, the program is intended to accompany the web browser Netscape Navigator 9, and is based on [...]
