UPDATE Thursday 27 February 2014:
To the developer, can you please provide your e-mail address or contact me directly? Forums are a hassle for me and I really dislike them. I have no account on that site and I wish not to make one.

This is my last resort as I am not able to find the developer's e-mail address anywhere which is very annoying.<br abp="317"><br abp="318">I use a screen reader called JAWS For Windows because I can not see a screen or use a mouse. Everything MUST be 100% accessible via the keyboard. This not only means controls but what the control's function is. Proper mark-up is required for everything and this add-on's options panel lacks this. As I press Tab to navigate through the dialogue, there are unlabelled text fields and buttons. This is not acceptable. I am not able to discern this from that and modify accordingly. This panel needs serious work on both tabs.<br abp="319"><br abp="320">Also, there is no OK or Cancel buttons. I am not able to save changes because the buttons are not there. They would normally proceed the two tabs.<br abp="321"><br abp="322">I like this add-on but there needs to be a lot of improvements for which the sighted population has no concern. I hope accessibility improves in the near future.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (6.1.0.1-signed).

Hi O.G. Loco,

Thank you so much for your review and kind words.

Could you help me what your software requires for accessibility? I will definitely add the requirements for accessibility.

The changes are applied instantly so no OK or Cancel button is necessary.

Thanks for great addon.
But v6.0 does not work with Firefox v30.0a1. Previous version works without problem.

Hi Kajman,

Thank you so much for your review.

I sent a new update which works for Firefox 30. Could you install v.6.1.0 and recheck?

I really like this extension, and am really grateful to the developer for all the hard work! I have a few suggestions, if you don't mind? ;)

* an easy way, with a single click of the mouse, to show/hide the bar (sometimes I am not near the keyboard, so can't use the shortcut)
* in addition to the information when downloading, it would be good to have "remaining to download" and "total" filesize, possibly in the format remaining/total ie. "175 / 320 MB"

Other than these minor points, it's perfect! Thank you again! :)

Great Addon.
The only missing feature is the one that ask for a confirmation if you close firefox and are downloading something.

До этого пользовался одноименным аддоном, но с версии FF 26.0 он перестал работать. Нашел этот аддон и сейчас постоянно его устанавливаю и не только себе. Я и люди довольны. Спасибо автору за проделанную работу!!! Респект Жальгирис!

One of the best addons for FF.

How about an option to bold the information, I mean font weight, I can barely see the data on each bar, and I dont want to increase the font size, because the bar will look bigger, thanks.
