Open plain text URLs from the context menu.rnUpdated for Firefox 3 RC. Customize which context menu items are present in Firefox by choosing Tools Extensions, selecting Fetch Text URL, then clicking options.
Fetch Text URL extension allows you to highlight the text URL and open it from the context menu by right clicking.
Here are some key features of "Fetch Text URL":
· Open links in a new tab, current tab, or new window by highlighting the URL and using the context menu (right-click).
· Icons help identify which context menu item to choose. (But if you don`t like them you can turn them off.)
· Recognizes and handles the http, https, and ftp protocols.
· Customize which items to display in the context menu and how they are displayed through extension options or about:config.
· Automatically fixes malformed URL protocols. For example, some links are written as "h**p://blah.com" or "htp://blah.com" to avoid direct linking. Fetch Text URL will automatically convert the protocol to http when opening the link. Also removes invalid characters and excess whitespace from the front and end of URLs in text such as "(http://blah.com)" or " [http://blah.com]" which allows for sloppy highlighting within a reasonable tolerance.
Requirements:
· Firefox 1.0 to 4.0.*
