Extension News
Posted on November 20, 2007 at 2:02 pmI am currently working on a new release of both Googlebar Lite and CoLT:
Googlebar Lite 4.6.4
This new release will fix a major problem that occurs when browsing JAR files in Firefox when Googlebar Lite is installed. A new Greek translation will also be added.
CoLT 2.4.0
Support for rich-text format hyperlinks is coming in the next release of CoLT. I am still awaiting a number of localizations for this new version, but as soon as they become available, I will release.
With any luck, I will also be able to add Firefox 3.0 support to both of these new releases.
Paper Plus 9.31
Posted on October 27, 2007 at 9:58 pmA new build of Paper Plus is now available. This release fixes a problem where the “Remove Dead Files” option wasn’t removing all of the dead files in the list.

Where’s Jonah?
Posted on September 8, 2007 at 4:44 pmVisitors to this website may wonder where I’ve wandered off to, due to the lack of updates. These days, I put way more effort into my blog, Year of the Code Monkey. Be sure to stop by and join in the discussions, and take some time to browse through my photo albums.
Accessible Link Changes
Posted on July 12, 2007 at 9:28 pmAs I recently mentioned on my blog, the way I was handling the “skip to main content” links on this site wasn’t as accessible as I had originally thought. I have fixed this issue, and hopefully things will be much better. Please let me know if anything looks odd or out of place.
Googlebar Lite 4.6.3
Posted on June 27, 2007 at 7:28 pmYet another new release of Googlebar Lite is available. Two regressions surfaced from changes that were made in 4.6.2. Here’s the change log:
- Bug Fix: An uncaught exception in the new URL parsing logic (added in 4.6.2) was causing the URL bar in Firefox to act incorrectly when a new tab was opened.
- Bug Fix: The new URL parsing was too strict. Because of this, search terms were not being updated appropriately on non-web searches (image searches, group searches, etc.).
Googlebar Lite 4.6.2
Posted on June 24, 2007 at 9:49 amA new release of Googlebar Lite is now available. Changes in this release:
- The "Google GMail" option in the Googlebar Lite main menu now points to the secure https:// address.
- Bug Fix: Searching country-specific pages often caused search terms to become corrupted in the Googlebar Lite search box. The URL parsing logic has been rewritten and should now work as expected.
- Bug Fix: Some translational errors in the Dutch (nl-NL) locale have been fixed.
Googlebar Lite 4.6.1
Posted on June 9, 2007 at 9:14 amA small update to Googlebar Lite has been posted. This release fixes two bugs:
- Bug Fix: Highlighting on pages that contained frames did not work as expected.
- Bug Fix: Strict JavaScript parsing error.
