Firefox users can add functionality to their browser by installing an add-on. To install an add-n click on Tools->Add-ons.

You can then search for your requested add-on: add-on to download movies from a site, to share a page in Facebook, to add a Delicious bookmark, etc. Another useful add-on is DOM Inspector, which allows you to locate and modify document elements. Firefox add-ons are written in Javascript and access document elements, just like Javascript scripts within HTML documents, except that the document an add-on accesses is named Chrome Document.
Accessing the Chrome Document
The Chrome document contains more than just the “window” element, accessed from a web page using Javascript. Chrome also contains menus, toolbars and other widgets. Let’s make changing one of the Chrome document’s elements your first step in add-on development. If you don’t have DOM Inspector installed in your browser, you can get it here. Now, you can use it to play around a little bit. For example, let’s change the ‘Tools’ menu’s name to ‘Fools’.
To do so, perform the following steps:
- Tools->Web Developer->DOM Inspector:
- In the DOM Inspector menu bar, choose: File->Inspect Chrome Document->(tab name)
- In the DOM Inspector Window, click the magnifying-glass icon.
- In the browser’s window click ‘Tools’ menu
IMPORTANT! This will NOT work if the “Global Menu BAR Integration” add-on is enabled!!! - Open the DOM Inspector window.
The ‘tools-menu’ node will appear on the right-hand part of the window.
Now, you can see that the value of the node’s “label” attribute is “Tools” - Right click the “Label” attribute, then left-click “Edit”.
- In the “Edit Attributes” window opened change the Node Value and click “OK”.
- Nice work!!!
Congratulations! Now you know how to access chrome elements and modify them. This will help you later when you learn how to do it in Javascript.
