    Update Posted v0.714

    I found a couple of bugs that occur on non-english installs of Firefox. Also, I have removed the Adobe Flash installer and Adobe Shockwave Installer. Since, they can be downloaded directly from Adobe. Once downloaded, they are stored in the Files folder along with the Firefox installers, so they can be re-used if they still exist.

    Firefox 3.6 has made a security change to their plugins and components folders. NO files other than those shipped with Firefox will be allowed to run from within the components folder. So, if you use Firefox 3.6 and beyond, WGA and OGA, RealPlayer and RealPlayer Alternative, Quicktime and Quicktime Alternative are affected. WGA and OGA will not work as shipped by M$. The others may work if they are properly installed.

    v0.714 - 12-26-09

    -changed script for checking version for saved file

    -removed pluginreg.dat from files watched - it has hard coded paths and is included with plugins. it is created on first run

    -fixed copies compreg.dat(automatically regenerated as needed), found some systems have copy in the compoments folder

    -changed installation order, moved shockwave and flash before setting firefox as default and creation of profile

    -added dynamic creation of plugins.txt file for future releases of Firefox, where the contents may differ

    -discovered reason for some plugins not working properly with 3.6 (http://lwn.net/Articles/363568/) - this may be backported to 3.5

    -for now, any plugin that installs file into the components folder do not work in 3.6. This includes WGA and OGA, RealPlayer and RealPlayer Alternative, Quicktime and Quicktime Alternative.

    -for Firefox Version 3.6, I have disabled plugins that install files to the components folder, until those plugins are updated for Firefox 3.6. This includes WGA and OGA, RealPlayer and RealPlayer Alternative.

    -no longer copying all of the components amd plugins if the file is part of the installation of one of the included plugins, regardless if the plugin is selected or not. I am looking for installers to include and replace the plugins.

    -fixed Firefox Versions spans to correct css hover style after updating links

    -fixed path for filecopy of Quicktime Alternative

    -no longer including Flash Player Installer

    -no longer including Shockwave (slim) Player Installer

    -added option for Shockwave (full) Player

    -added Silverlight Plugin installer , when the download location changes, it will download from Sourceforge.net, notifying me to update the script to new path

    I have just finished creating a simple (not professional) video on how to use Firefox Addon Maker. I hope it helps you if you needed it. I am open to suggestions for making the video better and\or provide more information. The video is available from Sourceforge.net.

    Please, this is my first attempt at creating a how-to video and I agree that it is not the best.

    Update Posted v0.710

    This update is much larger because I am now including the flash installer and the shockwave slim installer. Both files are dynamically updated to the current file whenever the version changes. I also added "Pin to Start Menu" for Win7 users.

    v0.710 - 12-17-09

    -fixed shortcut creation

    -added Pin to Start Menu for Win7 users - in all languages previously included for Pin To TaskBar

    -made it possible to remove additional icon sets(smaller download for users that don't use the custom icons)

    -additional icons in future releases will be in a separate file(place them in the same folder as Firefox Addon Maker)

    -inclusion of additional icon sets is dynamic, add your own icons in the same format as the default icon set

    -inclusion of additional style sheets is dynamic, add your own styles in the same format as the default and name it style01.css through style10.css

    -removed Flash plugins and added Flash Installer, this dynamically updates to current version when user updates links

    -removed Shockwave plugins and added Shockwave Slim Installer, this dynamically updates to current version when user updates links

    -fixed bug when load saved settings, the saved version number would be loaded

    i placed the addon maker in a folder as i normally do as more folders and files are made by the addon maker,

    but now moved the whole folder to the c drive

    and when asked to choose a folder now when you click on create addon i choose the addon maker folder in the c drive..

    and it worked ok this time..

    so the place the addon maker is.. is where the create addon button has to point to when asked...

    then it works ok..

    The Install Path or DestinationPath is "where" you want to install firefox to, when you run the installer, not where you want to put the installer once it is created. The installer will be created wherever you run the script from.

    Folks,

    I am offering a $50.00 gift card or a $50.00 donation to WinCert.com made in your name to the winner of the best theme created for Firefox Addon Maker.

    The rules are simple. The only file that you can edit is the default.css file and you can add your own image. X-rated images are not allowed. There are no limits to how many entries to can submit. Post the links to those 2 files in this topic and then I will create a poll. The winner of the poll is the winner of the contest.

    I have not set a deadline, yet. But, I will in a few days. I am leaning towards 30 days for submission and 10 days for poll.

    Everything in the hta\html file is configured by the style sheet.

    I hope to see some exciting themes.

    Alright, I have asked this before and received no support. So, I'm asking again.

    I really dislike having to post an update just so that I can get someone to tell me of a bug they have found. I need some volunteers to join me and bug test each version, before I make it public. This will reduce the number of errors in the public releases.

    If you value this script and you have a little free time, please PM for the details.

    Thanks

    Mr. Johnyboy,

    If Not objFSO.FileExists( ProfilePath & "\prefs.js" ) Then

    ProfilePath

    var = "true"

    End If

    barko = "false" on this line (1710) is called in original script subroutine "Downgrade" which makes ERROR in my situation and above posts, i replace this with dummy line and then it work OK.

    If var = "true" Then

    ValidateSettings

    Else

    strMbox = MsgBox(Text048,68,Text049)

    End If

    Cheers :-D

    I have removed all of the literal "true" "false" statements for the next update and that should fix this error.

    But, this is not the real error, the error is later in Sub Downgrade. My guess is you are testing with "Local system" checked and the uVersion value is "" causing the error. This is also fixed for the next update.

    Thanks

    The shortcut get created. I have UAC enabled so ill see if it installs correctly when I run as admin. Im cable internet.

    If UAC is enabled, you must as admin.The shortcuts that were created were created when firefox is set as default browser. None of the other vbscripts are allowed system access because of the UAC. The vbscripts create the requested shortcuts, delete the shortcuts created by default and fix the extensions setting that is needed for silent install.
