I am looking for examples of the "best looking" Firefox add-ons. By "best looking" I mean usable and stylish look and feel. I am not necessarily looking for "must have" add-ons but for examples of how rich an add-on can be.
One add-on per answer, please.
I want Firefox to redirect bad and broken links to Google search instead of the "Can't find the server" page. If it takes an add-on, that's okay.
When you enter a bad or broken link in Google Chrome, the browser takes you to a search results page with all possibly relevant links to the request attempted.
Please don't suggest the search-tool-bar,…
I like the extra vertical space provided by the latest firefox beta (4b9). However, the button interface doesn't give you access to the tools menu.
I know that I can either temporarily enable the menubar by holding down the ALT key, but flipping a flag in about:config would be preferable. Does such a flag exist?
Edit: I want to be able to access…
For those of you that follow me on Twitter, you've probably seen some of my tweets regarding major performance problems I've seen with the install of FireFox 6.0. FireFox 6.0 was released a couple of weeks ago and is treated as a 'force feed' update for FireFox5.0. I'm not sure what the deal is with this braindead versioning that Mozilla is doing…

It seem's that Firefox intalled by default with Lubuntu 13.10 is not localized (in french for my case).

Hello,
Do you know such an extension that provides easy document scanning in Firefox? We are building a web site and we want visitors to be able to upload scanned documents to it. The normal procedure for that is:

Navigate to the upload web…
Hi, I want to know if there is some method to disable AJAX on particular tabs within Firefox and re-enable them later.
My concern is that I have metered bandwidth, and I need to conserve my usage. But I also like to leave several Gmail tabs open in the background. It would be great if I could just hit a "Pause AJAX" button, to…

I edit frequently on Super User, and it is a pain to edit for capitalization or words that are shortened, i.e. Win7 instead of Windows 7, or windows versus Windows.
Using Firefox3.6 and/or 4, Is there a way (using an extension or configure settings) I can configure the dictionary to automatically recognize words that may…
I know Firefox extensions that allow protecting (cannot be closed) and locking (cannot change URL) tabs. What I need is an extension that locks a tab to a certain domain or URL pattern.
For example, I want to lock a tab to the domain example.com. As long as I follow links that are within this domain the tab should show…
I've been requested to find a method of saving passwords on a form that uses three inputs, all set as type="password". It seems that Firefox will only save the password for the first password input. Here's the code foundation, which I simplified.
<FORM NAME = "PSWRD" ACTION="index.pgm" Method="POST"…

I happened to be browsing through /var/log/messages for another reason, and I stumbled across some messages apparently related to Firefox like this:
