- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13720006, 7 years agoGREAT ADD ON!
Update: problem solved after I "Refresh Firefox" to reset add-ons and settings.
---------------------------
Thanks a lot for providing this addOn! It would be very very useful but I am somehow not able to use this add on. After I enabled the key shortcuts from firefox's extension setting page, and clicked 'save settings', the settings don't seem to be properly saved --- if I refresh the setting page, the settings are reset to disabled. And it does not work when I try it with Google search. Any ideas? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13125207, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 9986444, 7 years agoGoogle Search results page is unusable without this. Don't forget to check the settings: some subjectively crucial ones are not enabled by default.

Love this feature back, thanks to this addon.
Great work! - Rated 5 out of 5by Pothi Kalimuthu, 7 years agoGoogle removed the ability to browse through the search results using keyboard. My productivity has degraded since then, since I heavily rely on keyboard navigation. This add-on brought me back on track! Thanks so much!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Avia, 7 years agoDoes exactly what it supposed to do. Works in localized Google domains as well.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13010556, 8 years agoReally like the idea of reimplementing the Google fast search, as I'm missing this hugely since they removed this feature. Great job with that!
*Edit*
After checking the publicly available sourcecode, privacy concerns were unfounded. Thanks for the great addon!Developer response
posted 8 years agoSorry, I have restricted the permissions as much as possible. I originally had it set as you're requesting, but that blocked users from other countries and applications (read: subdomains such as scholar.google) from using the extension. The extension stops processing unless html[itemtype="http://schema.org/SearchResultsPage"] or .gs_r is present (scholar).
However, if you would like, you are free to review and build the extension yourself. The source code is available publicly here:

- Rated 5 out of 5by Gilad Kutiel, 8 years agoI second previous reviews. This is a must have extension but it misses any kind of indicator for the selected result.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Rasul, 8 years agoVery helpful extension. But when I go through search results using arrow I can't see any pointer that would indicate current row. Google itself used a blue triangle for this purpose.
P.S. My browser is Firefox developer edition. In Google chrome your extension works fine: selected result is indicated by blue border line.Developer response
posted 8 years agoI've updated the Firefox extension to be in line with the Chrome version. It should be available later today. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13190704, 8 years agoGood simple add-on. Only TAB + Arrow feature that I need.
