  Is there something similar for Firefox?
• makomk 13y ago
  From what I've heard, at least some of those extensions work by faking the user agent as IE8 and will break as soon as Google discontinues support for it.

  How does this work? Why did they obfusicate their JS? Do I want to trust them?
  • SchizoDuckie 13y ago
    chrome["webRequest"]["onBeforeSendHeaders"]["addListener"](function (a) { var b = a["requestHeaders"]; b[forEach](function (c, d) { if (c["name"]["toLowerCase"]() =="user-agent") { c["value"] = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0)",; }; }); return { requestHeaders: _0xb56fx2 }; }, { urls: ["http://mail.google.com/*" http://mail.google.com/*", "https://mail.google.com/*" https://mail.google.com/*", types: ["main_frame", "sub_frame"] }, ["blocking", requestHeaders); It actually really just swaps the user-agent for the ie8 header.

  Using the Basic HTML version also helps a bit. :)

    I love the Basic HTML version even though it's ugly, but I don't think it's for everyone. (Having said that, it's definitely worth giving it a try)
