Well, thank you for living up to your promise of a complete re-write of the Firefox Maker :-). So, from what I can see, we can only create a switchless installer now.

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

[Jonnyboy82]

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
