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.

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.

-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 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 v0.714

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

The latest version works perfectly for 3.0.17 thanks.

The preferences and themes in all versions doesn't work when I'm making an unattended installation of xp, they work only if I use the same user name. Can you add an option that creates these settings for any user that it is created on your next version?
