We recommend Firefox as the web browser of first choice for anyone adding and editing content in a Joomla! website.
Why?
Joomla! content editor panels load faster and update quicker too after making your amendments. IE is simply tedious to use for editing your site!
Real benefits arise from using the following Firefox Add-ons too:
Screengrab - saves a web page as an image
- could be an alternative to GreenCapture but we recommend using as well as because ScreenGrab does not enable you to annotate captured images before saving, and it only works in your browser window - whereas GreenCapture will capture anything!
Capture Fox - capture your screen and record your voice!
- not in our view as easy or quick to use as ScreenGrab but does enable a useful talk-over and the facility to create slideshows with a soundtrack! Again only works capturing content when your browser is open.
How can you obtain Firefox Addons?
1) open your Firefox browser;
2) select Tools from the menu at the top of the screen;
3) select Add-ons from the drop-down menu;
4) select the Get Add-ons button from the Add-ons window.
Enjoy using these great resources to create content for your website!
