I was pointed to this Firefox extension a few years ago, and realize that many FReepers may have not used any HTML helpers for posting.

I use this extension every day, and especially when posting pictures and links.

While I have been around the "Internet" for decades, going back to the original Fort Worth Star Telegram StarText site on a 300 baud modem, my understanding of HTML stopped long ago when I realized that I can hire it done much cheaper than spending my time learning an ever changing markup language.

Bon appetite!

I do not know who wrote this extension.

If anyone remembers (or can search through code better than I) please let us know.

It could be John R. - just do not know.

I have the extension installed and use this every day.

Simply too valuable for new FReepers not to know about.

And follow the link to make sure that all is well with the posting and installing of the extension.

Didn’t read most of that. Suggestion - have the title pop up during the preview stage.

“Click here to install FRPFE on Firefox.”

I tried but I got>>>>The requested document does not exist on this server.
The FRPFE is incorrect....

Screenshot of editor buttons since yours didn't come through.

New website for Xinha. https://trac.xinha.org/ since your link was a 404

I've been using cyndywood's helper for years but didn't know about all the keyboard shortcuts

I've been using this for years. It's great.

I've suggested it to many people over the years without success. Some people just don't want to try new things.

Sounds cool. My understanding is that Brave is pretty much Chrome with Google removed and privacy enhanced (that’s why I use it). So I’m going to try installing it to Brave.

A pet peeve of mine...
when you are adding a poster’s handle to a reply, and misspell the name....why can’t the software come back and ask you: **Did you mean...*XXXX*, like a spellcheck for user names.

Do you know if the extension will work on/with the Brave browser? (I switched off Firefox when Mozzila when “woke”).
