Written by Amit Banerjee on 4 Oct, 2009 Under Software

If you love Using Google chrome as well as Firefox then there may be situations  when you would want to open a webpage in Google chrome from Firefox.This add on will let you open any Webpage from Firefox in Chrome or Internet explorer.

Open any Webpage In Google chrome From Firefox

You don’t need to copy the address of the URL and paste it in chrome address bar. Just Install This add on in Firefox and you can open any webpage in chrome from the Firefox right click context menu

The extension can be further configured to open certain websites always In Chrome.

For example : You may wish to open any Wikipedia page always in Google chrome.Then in the Add ons settings panel just add the keyword “Wikipedia” and any URL that has the word Wikipedia and it will open in Google chrome (always).

Open Any Webpage In Internet Explorer from Firefox

To open web pages into Internet explorer from Firefox use IE view.It is a Firefox extension that lets you open web links  from Firefox in internet explorer. I am a big fan of Firefox but sometimes when i am designing a template or a theme i need to test the look and design in different browsers (especially IE6 )

ie-view

The extension adds an entry in the Firefox context menu and you can easily open any Link in Internet explorer from Firefox.You can also add sites to “always-view-in-IE” list.These pages when opened in Firefox will automatically open in Internet explorer.

  3. This is good, but for some reason I feel I’m done with Firefox , Chrome become my first preference and I have been loving it .. Though I still use MOzilla at times, for some useful addon..else Chrome is so fast…

    • @Harsh I agree with you that chrome is really fast……..But still mozilla is much effective & multi-purpose browser. Anyways IE sucks. :)
