Mouse Gestures
Is anyone going to update the add in for mouse gestures?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Well it works with Firefox 2... Since you are using Firefox 3.0b4 I am going to move you to the Builds forum. There are a couple of things to keep in mind.
1) Firefox 3 is not at a officially completed release yet.
2) Most add-ons will not be updated until Firefox 3 is officially released. This is because there are always changes going on within the test builds of Firefox.
3) There is a compatible version of Mouse Gestures for Firefox test builds.
From this page: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/39
is this link: http://www.mousegestures.org/nightly.html

I have Nightly Tester Tools installed so when I hit a new jump in FF3 version numbers and it disables all my add-ons I just click the "Make all compatible" button in Nighly test tools so I guess I don't see this problem much
Update: Larry, v1.0.5 out today which I think will be immediately compatible for you

Fredlkrue, no problem, I also prefer to use a tool that is better supported and updated, this one seems to run that bit faster to me, I only use a few simple gestures for closing the tab I'm reading and closing the browser, don't need tons of other features.

Generally they're simliar in features, I've tried FireGestures and found a problem: it doesn't cooperate well with [Ext]"Nextplease", as even I managed to add Nextplease/Prevplease etc into user scripts, they cannot be assigned as rocker gestures, whereas I prefer rocker right/left for Next/Prev links.
Still I fallback to Mouse Gestures Redox (nightly)..

I also use like 5-6 gestures thats all, and indeed it seems a lot faster

While the Fire Gestures version hasn't been updated for F3B5, it works fine for me in F3B5.

You just have to set your browser extension compatibility to accept "old" addons ---
Enter in your address bar about:config and then add "extensions.checkCompatibility" as a boolean type with its value set to false. If already present, toggle its value to false.

Sorry, but that doesn't work. Follow your directions exactly and still can't install it. Any other ideas?
