You have to install the extension that this thread is about, from the first post.
Then, there will be a file automatically created in your Chrome folder named userChrome.js.
Also, the ChromEdit Plus extension and the MR Tech Local Install extension's Chrome Editor have tabs for the userChrome.js file in addition to the ones ChromeEdit has that you can take advantage of after you install the extension from this thread.
And the ChromEdit Plus SE extension already contains the userChrome.js extension functionality within it, so, if you were to use that, you wouldn't have to install the extension from here either.

It does for me, on several different profiles and in 2.0 beta, 2.0 nightlies, and trunk nightlies... and 1.5 as well, but there's no "Add-ons Manager" in that anyway, so....
Are you sure you don't have the ChromEdit Plus SE extension installed (see my previous post) and just somehow or another thought you installed the standalone userChrome.js extension?

@Zoolcar9: You are (yet again) . . . a GOD, sir! Fantastic work. "Inspect This" was very very handy for me, but 624k before removing locales; 112k with en_US only. Now this GREAT 1500 byte "element inspector," complete with context menu entry - a keeper - thanks so very much. I hope there'll be more development of these non XUL, userchrome.js "extension replacers," or even newly developed functions. It's the way to go! I'm sporting only 3 as of now - the one above for "inspect," "OpenChrome"and Desert Fox's "Mouse Gestures." All total 4k, and are indispensable. / p

I wish I know. I got that from TMP's tabs context menu.
The ideas are from this post (Image Sender) and these extensions (Inspect Element). But the extensions can only inspect content document elements from context menu.
Glad you all like it
Oh, almost forgot. Here are the XUL version of Image Sender and Frank's Save Background Image:

There is (and the snippets already partially use it): use <code>var tabbrowser = getBrowser();</code> instead or simply rely on the global <code>gBrowser</code> variable in the first place.
There's a bug with the Element Inspector script (not the xul version, haven't tried that yet).
The menuitem appears in the address bar drop down, and clicking it makes firefox crash.
i just wrote a userChrome.js spinnet for mouse rocker gestures! ... any suggestions for more gestures?
Releasing the right mouse button brings up the context menu. Especially annoying when you have to go forward a number of times. Any way to not make this happen?
Also the right-clicking & using scroll wheel to switch tabs doesn't work at times on a heavy page when it is loading. I've seen the feature of scrolling over the tab bar in AIOG works at such times also.
Can I make a toolbar vertical? I'd asked this in the Stylish thread before.
TIA
