huh? Firefox already does the filesize and properities of an image.
Anyways, the extension is now called (according to 1.1.4 - File Size)
And it only displays the file size of a file that is hyper linked directly to (as far as I can tell.)

I'm desperately hoping this will give the right click an image and get its dimensions and file size like IE does.
Thanks.
*edited to add* You can also select View background image to view it in a new tab / window to get this info in the same manner afterwards for background images
Hello, thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. Problem is, I don't have any right click and "Properties" for ANYTHING. I even added a /* #context-metadata /* "Properties" */ to the "IMAGES" area of the userChrome.css file and that did nothing. (Enabling that tag also did nothing for the right clicking of a webpage and "properties", and that's where the tag was originally in the userChrome.css file. Actually, it did do something, it made the userChrome file default back to the original settings BEFORE the css file was ever installed!) So, perhaps I'm missing a particular plugin extension for this function?
Thanks.

Thanks, I guess I need that extension, but I tried to search for it and can't find it. What is its exact name please? If it works it sounds like it will only do half of what I need, since I also need to be able to get an image size, type, and dimensions that is NOT linked, just a plain image.
Thanks.

You need to go to the Extensions Mirror
The exact link to the Get File Size extension is Get File Size 1.1.4
They already started repacking extensions because of the Oct 16 nightlies which are already bumped to Firefox 1.0. .
Question?
What extensions are you already using? If you can list them here.
Also what version of Firefox are you using?
You should Always have a Properties option. If you don't and have Menu Editor Try resetting the Context Menu.
Something might have gotten screwed up. (happens to me sometimes)

Thank you for the info, that only appears to work on links, right? I'm looking for an extension where I can right click an image and get its properties.

I just now noticed you edited your post. I mentioned above I'm using 1.0PR. Sorry, I'm very new to FF and don't know how to "reset the context menu" nor what "Menu editor" is. I'm using many dozens of extensions, too many to type, so if there's a list of them in some file somewhere, please LMK and I can just copy and paste their names into a post here.
Thanks.

/* #context-metadata /* "Properties" */
*edited to add* to test whether or not an extension may be causing this you can start Firefox in -safe-mode and try the same test as outlined previously. Information on starting in -safe-mode can be found here:

I'll say! I just opened this page in FF, and there are no avitars! In IE, I see them. Images show OK on other webpages in FF, so I don't understand this. Any suggestions? Not only on that, but also this lack of "properties" issue. I never had any right click and "properties" for images nor blank areas of a webpage even before editing the userchrome.css file.
Thank you.

Modifying the userChrome.css can remove menu items and without knowing css and how to properly format the css it would probably be best to rename those files until this is resolved for you. After renaming them to something along the lines of userChrome.css.bak and userContent.css.bak exit / restart Firefox and then navigate to the forums... then try right clicking an avatar (the forum has some background images where this won't work and an avatar is known to work) try it again.Code: Select all

Yep, I've been editing userChrome.css . Well, I started FF in safe mode and it didn't do anything different. All extensions are still loaded. I can right click things and see the extensions' options in the menu. So, it apparently loaded with all plugin extensions. Ok, now it worked this time, it now appears as default. Extension list is "grayed out". Still no right click and "properties" for ANYTHING.
I also renamed userChrome.css many times to disable it, and I still had no "properties". Plus when it's disabled, the right click menu goes way off the screen. That was the only way I could fix it going off the screen was to get the userChrome.css file installed.

I am not sure what you mean by "I also renamed userChrome.css many times to disable it," you should only have to rename it once.
Are you using a custom theme... perhaps that is moving your context menu. Perhaps trying the default theme if you aren't using it already... if you are it sounds like it is time for a new profile.

I don't even have a userContent.css file in the "Chrome" folder. I found a "userContent-example.css" file in the "Defaults" folder though, and I opened it and at the top it said it goes in the "Chrome" folder! Something else odd; when I open the userChrome.css file in Notepad, it's all "squished up" together, you know, no .css formatting. However when I open the .css files in the "Defaults" folder in Notepad, they have the css formatting (as you see them in the "Chrome Edit" plugin)! Should I drag the userContent-example.css file into the "Chrome" folder and remove the "-example", or do that for the userChrome file for that matter?
Thanks.
Thanks.

It sounds like it is using UNIX line feeds... what ever the case I wouldn't worry about the userContent.css and userChrome.css until after the context menu is fixed and you are able to view images... neither file is required by Firefox for it or these features to work.
*edited to add* with all of the unknowns and with inherit functionality broken it is probably best to go with a new profile at the very least and possibly a clean install as well.
