Snapper for Firefox 3

Snapper, a wonderful Firefox extension, was developed for older versions of Firefox (<= 1.5) and even with install.rdf patching it would run on Firefox 3 with glitches that made it almost unusable. I hacked the code a bit to provide a nice version of Snapper for Firefox 3.

Major fixes:
  • Fixed bug with selection process when page elements were actually selected when dragging the screenshot area.
  • Fixed bug with dimensions so that the red border is not included in the screenshot.
If you have some suggestions for more quick fixes for Snapper, please comment.

Thanks a lot for doing this, Vlad. I really appreciate it.

I've finally updated Snapper (version 1.4.1), which can be found on the Mozilla site:

It's currently sandboxed, but hopefully can go public soon. If you have any comments (or anything), please feel free to send me an email at the address provided on the site above.
