bit the bullet to a small degree.
OK, did you read what I wrote in my original post?
you can get the xpi file and retain it locally. initiate installing the add-on in seamonkey. it will dl the xpi file and request you restart seamonkey to complete the install.
When I visit the download page
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/screengrab-fix-version/versio...
with my seamonkey web browser I cannot find any download link to
the
xpi files. I see only big green buttons with the message "Only with Firefox
I just did that. There's a ton of versions linked, e.g.:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/722227/type:attachment/scr...
Do you see these links in seamonkey web browser? Which version?
Yep. Sadly a rather dusty version which I've locked down with UMatrix and more quite nicely (some would say I'm paranoid[1] ;)
Which is why I got a rather bleak "black on grey with blue links and that's it"-version of the page ;) Moving the mouse over the links, I easily found the direct link to the actual .xpi ;)
Oh, mompl... Got an almost current 2.49.er version as well. Hm. Some stuff of my copied profile makes it barf and dump core. (I guess I should check that or start with a new profile) ;) Ok, for this check though, safe-mode suffices and works.
Ahh, I see, in default safe-mode, I get what you described (i.e. the "Only with FF .." Buttons)...
Yep, that's it: Just disable JS and you'll get a nice green "Download Now" button beside each version, with the one beside 0.99.12 linking to (if you hover over it/copy the link), *tada*:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/722227/screengrab_fix_vers...
Thanks!!! Thank for reading what I wrote and answering my question, which helped to solve the problem. Only you and Felix wrote anything that had sense regarding the original question.
And just ignore those that don't get that version 2.x does not work with seamonkey (as exemplified by the missing "sm" in the link for
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/733683/screengrab_fix_vers...
I did know that it (version 0.99.12) worked because I'd had it installed previously in seamonkey - and it worked.
Actually, it's all due to this dain-bramage (with JS enabled):

As you can see, the actual link to the .xpi is still there at the end, which is what one gets without JS, but that is replaced by that FF stuff if JS is enabled.
OK, I see.
Bloody idjit effers at mozilla. I HATE the FF UI!
[Note: I've not found _ONE_ other modern GUI browser besides SM to have an acceptable UI, FF is actually somewhat useable of sorts if you're in a pinch.]
I refuse to use any browser which has google chrome-like interface, including google chrome/chromium, firefox > 29.x (australlis ui) etc. Mostly I use palemoon which also kept/keeps legacy ui layout and Seamonkey.
Seamonkey with Prefbar, UMatrix, Scriptish (aka GreaseMonkey / UserMonkey) ruled! Sadly, Prefbar was not ported. It's soooo convenient to just add a checkbox to prefbar for e.g. JS, CSS, broken SSL/TLS ciphers for broken sites, or dropdowns for language, UA and window-size... and whatever else you might want to toggle/change in about:config and more.
I don't know these but I will check them.
ONCE AGAIN: Only enable (whitelist) JS and stuff _IF YOU REALLY HAVE TO_...
How do I whitelist/blacklist sites for JS in Seamonkey? I know how to enable/disable JS in preferences but it is quite tedious to change it. Old opera (12.x) had a button for switching JS on/off, and it could added to the toolbar
If you'd followed that maxime, we'd not have had this thread ;)
