Tippy 0.2 - a small update to the Tippy firefox extension. This version adds dimming text on livemarks if the page is in your history and combines the “Recently Closed Tabs” menu into the tab drop down menu.

I find that I use the Recently Closed Tabs menu quite a bit in Firefox 2 and I wanted a faster way to access it. I’m not sure the tab popup menu is the right place for it and I feel the dimmed UI is not the right indicator. However, I wanted to try using something so I could get a sense for it. Feedback welcome.

i have some suggestions.

  1. in current version, pages with no favicon come out with a blank on left. maybe a default icon from current theme is better.
  2. pages with both page favicon (<link rel=”shortcut icon” href=”images/foo.ico”>) and site favicon come out with the site favicon. in fact, the page favicon has higher priority in both firefox and IE.
  3. could you add a ”Clean Recently Closed Tabs” item at the bottom?

Great by itself but if also installed with Back/Forward Status, the statusbar URLs don’t appear in the dropdown back/forward lists any more, which Back/Forward Status does). Can you make the tooltips optional and have the URL appear in the statusbar, too, please?
