Removing Cookies in Firefox Extensions

Removing a cookie from an extension…

IS:
Components.classes["@mozilla.org/cookiemanager;1"]
.getService(Components.interfaces.nsICookieManager)
.remove(“forums.vwvortex.com”, “firevortexfavforums”, “/”, false);

INSTEAD OF:
cookieSvc.setCookieString(uri, null, “firevortexfavforums=; domain=forums.vwvortex.com; expires=Thu Jan 01 1970 00:00:01 GMT-0700; path=/”, null);

[beta] FireVortex for FF3.1b2

I have posted a test extension for Firefox 3.1b2, please see the VWVortex Thread (first post) for download details.

-updated all xpath for gecko1.9 dom changes (case sensitive now? or maybe zeroforum html code)
-started to change around the greasemonkey compiler script, added my own API hitch, common functions
-added fistrun and upgrade open in new tab (thanks to session restore tip & on page load from MDC)

its back…

a bbbblllog is back. if you are looking for my old java, hibernate, mysql, and general hackery posts. i’ll work on importing them again. if they are still useful.

previous reason: dealing with 2k+ spam comments a day was annoying.

FireNICO Is Now Available

Awhile back I had a simple fork of FireVortex running on honda-tech.com (no longer on zeroforum) and nicoclub.com forums. I had forgotten (well maybe no one was using them) but it turns out it I was wrong… so updated for FF3.0 and brought inline with FV.

Anyways, grab FireNICO for NICOClub.com here or check out the forum thread
