Notes about the Firefox Extension for WebResearch

The Firefox extension basically supports the same features as the WebResearch integration in Internet Explorer. However, you will achieve better saving results if you install ScrapBook 1.2 because the WebResearch Firefox extension can then use some of its saving libraries.

Further notes:

1. The Firefox browser cache is not used.
   All WebResearch downloads are retrieved through WinInet, which is the Internet download component from Windows. WinInet can only access the Internet Explorer cache ("Temporary Internet Files" folder) and not the cache of Firefox. Thus, all pictures from Web pages will be downloaded from the Web once more while saving with WebResearch.
   (does not apply if Scrapbook is installed)
    
2. Problems with pages that use nested frames.
   Solution: Save one single frame with the shortcut menu.
    
3. WebResearch Toolbar is not movable
   Firefox does not support movable toolbars. You can only move single buttons.
    
4. WebResearch features that are available in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox:
   - Edit Web pages
   - Highlight text in Web pages
   - Set reminder for follow up
   Solution: Use these features in the WebResearch application, where they are available after saving the page.
