On some websites (e.g. ebay.de) the preview window closes and the link opens in the same tab from where I previewed. Hence my former website disappears and is replaced by the previewed link. It does not behave that way on all websites. When working as intended then this tool is excellent, thank you! I am also a former Cool Preview user and so greatful to Lecron about this new Addon. If you need further details to understand/debug my issue, please feel free to drop a line.

The preview window closes itself and the link opens on a new tab within 2 seconds even though I haven't clicked it. Since no one else mentioned this issue, I wonder if it has anything to do with my Linux system.
EDIT: I just realized that the issue occurs only on Reddit.

Unfortunately it gets in the way of ImTranslator which I use a lot. I miss Cool Previews a lot. Is there a way to turn this add on On or OFF? It seems to have superseded ImTranslator. When I disable it, ImTranslator reappears.

CANCEL that! It means I cannot translate a LINK, but the text is still translating by using ImTranslator.
Great job !!

62.0b4 beta version of my Firefox IOS win 7, 64 bit
With me it appears a complete blank canvas. Please help, I've been waiting years for this extension to work again.

I.LOVE.IT! I can't believe that, after all this time, someone has FINALLY released a replacement for Cool Previews! That was,hands down, the most useful add-on ever, and the reason I stayed with Firefox through many of its ups and downs. When Cool Previews was absolutely gone (I didn't upgrade FF so I could keep using CP - until it was no longer possible), I almost quit using FF completely. Now I will make FF my Default browser again!

Thanks you so much for this! A couple of small requests: it would really help if the window could be resized, and moved around (or include a preference to set where it opens), since it is usually smaller than the previewed page, requiring side-to-side AND up-and-down scrolling, and it opens glued to the right side of the page, which can block what I'm looking at.

Otherwise, it opens pretty fast, and the close button works well. Its icon even looks a lot like the old Cool Previews icon :o)

PLEASE keep working on this -- I would definitely be willing to contribute to help.

5 ***** for effort as I've been looking for a Cool Previews replacement for years!
I would like the ability to resize the window and control the appearance and disappearance times and I would be prepared to pay for this add-on.
Thanks!

I've been waiting a long time for an ezLinkPreview type of addon for FireFox and it has finally arrived. Unfortunately, it's missing one essential feature so I can't give it 5 stars. It needs a close button! Yes it closes itself after a certain amount of time but this waiting time seems to vary and sometimes it takes forever. Just add a close button. It's a good start though. Thanks to the developer.

EDIT: My request has been fulfilled! I've updated my review to 5 stars. Thank you Lecron!

EDIT2: Would it be possible to add a shortcut command for opening the preview window? For example ALT or MOUSE 4 and click on a link would open a preview, the CTRL LEFT-MOUSE which opens a new tab comes to mind. A similar command could be used to more easily close the preview window.

Great start. Resize and close buttons will be useful.

I did this by myself - can resize and drag window, size/pos is saved into storage.local then restored. Can I publish this with link to your original addon? Or simply share it with you, if you have not time to implement this functionality.

One of the most needed extensions in Firefox. I've been looking for a good replacement of CoolPreviews for years, now you finally made it. Thanks Lecron! It works well. Five stars!

Thanks Lecron, This is a great start.

Please explain the icons along the top.

The back / forward arrows. Is that to take you through pages on the website?

What is that square suppose to do?

The pin on the right side, allows the preview to stay up?

Would be nice to be able to resize the window. I just want a preview, not the whole website.
Is it suppose to work on Google Images.?

I really like to have an replacement for Cool Preview, but current version 1.00 is way to slow to be useful.
I hope future versions will fix this.

Finally the replacement of "cool preview".
So, I put Firefox as the default browser!

Fantastic tool, thanks.

Had to upgrade to a new PC. Cannot believe I found this on day one of the release. Had to keep an older version of Firefox to use a different preview plugin that went unsupported years ago. This one works just like it so far. Only issue is that the preview window doesn't close easy but it is still new.
