I read somewhere that there was a way to get a Google PR bar in Firefox but I can't find it now. Maybe I imagined it. Anybody know?

Here it is.

Apparently there used to be another one that only worked intermittently. I have found this one to be pretty solid.

Ah, great thanks, got it...one more thing, what am I supposed to do with the .xpi file I downloaded?

Point to this in Firefox:

Code:

javascript:InstallTrigger.install({'PRGooglebar' : 'http://www.prgooglebar.org/download/PRGooglebar-1.0.xpi'});

Thanks ped...as it turned out I just had to drop the file onto the Firefox window. Pretty neat.

Thanks again.

You can also just use File > Open in the browser itself.

Its reading funny, like PR0's as PR7's, take cj.com for eg, I read it as a 7 but in I.E its a 0!

I just wanted to point out there there are 2 diffrent projects do display PR in FF.

The one I mentioned in the above post displays it in the bottom right corner and has so far, been much more reliable than the one that displays in the googlebar for FF.

I have noticed some diffrences from time to time, though.
