Ever started type into an edit box on some web page (such as to post a comment or describe why your scooter was defective and they should send you new one)?

This miracle extension provides an edit button for any edit box[1] on any page or your money back[2]!
At the bottom left corner of any edit box, a little edit button will appear. Click it. If this is the first time you’ve used “It’s All Text!” then you will be asked to set your preferences, most importantly the editor.
The web page will popup in your selected editor. When you save it, it’ll refresh in the web page. Wait for the magic yellow glow that means that the radiation has taken effect!
Remember, with great power outages come great responsibility outages.
Ciao!
PS: Mac OS X users. I’m sorry, but due to the way applications are, especially editors, using It’s All Text! is a little harder than everyone else… see http://docwhat.gerf.org/2007/03/its_all_text_v06/ for some tricks. I am going to fix it but I don’t own a MacBook so it’s slow going. BTW: If you want to send me a MacBook…

== KNOWN ISSUES WITH FIREFOX 1.5 and 2.0 ==
1. You cannot open the JavaScript Debugger a second time after closing it – this is not our bug! It is a bug with Firefox 1.5 and 2.0. If we find a way around it, we will of course include it, but until then you must restart Firefox to reopen the debugger.
The problem is that Firefox 1.5 and 2.0 objects to the missing files worse the second time you try to open the window. The unofficial version changed more than just the version, it also removed references to these files. That will stop some features working on Mozilla Suite/SeaMonkey.
If you want to, try using this official version on a nightly build of Firefox from trunk (codenamed Minefield) – it happily opens many times, because they’ve fixed the bug since Firefox 2.0.
As several people have said in comments, it is possible to open images in new tabs or windows by pretending the menu item for "View Image" is a link in a page – middle-click or ctrl-click for a new tab, shift-click for a new window.
While for some people this may be ok, for others it is unintuitive – I, for one, did not know until the comments started coming in that the menu item could be treated like a link. That is why this extension exists – for those who find this behaviour unintuitive and prefer a separate menu item. Even though I now know of the behaviour, I still don’t find it "normal" to middle-click a menu item; I’m sure there are other people in the same position.

Before Installation:
LEGAL ISSUES:
* THIS IS NO WAY AFFILIATED WITH GOOGLE AND GOOGLE DOESN’T ENDORSE IT. SO, INSTALL IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
* I AM NOT HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DATA LOSS OR ANY DAMAGE DUE TO THIS EXTENSION.
* IF GOOGLE MAKES ANY CHANGES, THIS MAY NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY.
* IT MAY SO HAPPEN THAT THIS EXTENSION MAY BE DISCONTINUED AT ANY POINT. I WON’T BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT.
REQUIREMENTS:
* You should have Google Account to access Google Bookmarks and use this extension. You can create a new google account at https://www.google.com/accounts/.
* You need internet connection and a computer :):):)
USAGE:
* You can save your bookmarks to ONLY ONE account in this version. Accessing multiple accounts may not be feasible in Firefox.
* It ALWAYS picks the account you are logged into (no matter what account you gave in extension’s preferences or options) for the same reason said above. So, be careful if you use 2 accounts as the bookmarks may go to either of your accounts based on the login.
* This is the first version and may need lot of improvement. So, let me know if you encounter any bugs.
TODO:
* In the next version, interface for importing your existing firefox bookmarks to google bookmarks will be provided. So, please wait until then.
* Keyboard and context menu shortcuts

One installed the X-Ray command is available by right-clicking as well as in the Tools menu. When applied to a page it can help you see how the document was constructed without having to go back and forth between the sourcecode and the page in your browser.
