Re: [Htmlvalidator-help] cannot install Tidy .xpo as non-root!

[Marc G. <mg...@sk...>]

Hi Szabo,

I will tell it like this. I have no Debian but several SuSE installs.( 
CPU 32 bits)
I use mozilla 1.7.x with this version 
http://htmlvalidator.sourceforge.net/mozilla/tidy_firefox_linux_0793.xpi
And it works fine.

There is nothing special to do, except that you have to install the 
extension as root
to allow the copy of 2 files in the directory of Mozilla.

Beeing root is not neccessary in Firefox since Firefox fixes the problem 
of extensions
with platform dependent dynamic libraries.

Also depending of the Linux distribution you need to install 
compatibility packages:
See http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/faq.html point 3

Hope it helps,

Marc
