I need a plug-in or an extension for Firefox 1.5.07 that will allow me to view sites that only recognize IE. Any suggestions?
Discussion is locked
I use the extension IE Tab. The three main features are:
* You can right-click any link and select open in IE tab.
* While viewing a website you can click the extension's button and switch rendering engines for just that one page.
* You can add websites to the extension's list so that whenever you type in the specific URL it will automatically switch to the IE engine.
Hope this helps,
John
The page is actually being loaded by Internet Explorer but displayed inside a tab in Firefox. Thus, you are vulnerable to any security flaws that Internet Explorer has. However, there are no additional risks, so it's the same as using IE but without the inconvenience of loading two separate browsers.
