I'm trying to install Fireshot addon in opera version 11.62. bt it is not available on opera. Actually fireshot is the extension use for taking screenshot of the current locating site so to make report on the site. so is their any option beside that or can i install Fireshot on it?
Fireshot is a Firefox extension, I don't believe it's available as an Opera extension. You could try installing Lightshot, which sounds like it tries to do something similar (though some of the comments make it sound like it's a bit dodgy), or one of many third-party apps like Screenshot Captor.
Right now it is NOT possible for an Opera extension to do it, though we are working on exposing such functionality in the future through extensions.

I have extension published in addons.opera.com catalog. Is there a possibility in addons.opera.com "inline" installation from my site, as it done in the ChromeWebStore https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/
When extension hosted in the ChromeWebStore and User can initiate installations "inline" from my site (click button), but user no longer have to leave my site to install his.
This is now supported. See the documentation here: https://dev.opera.com/extensions/inline-installation/
This is not supported yet, but we're looking into it.
It seems Opera did have an Inline Install functionality for a while, but have now apparently removed it, due to the functionality being removed from the Blink browser engine that Opera is based on.
I have developed an NPRuntime plugin, everything is ok, but it not initialized in Safari. I registered the plugin in MozillaPlugins registry key, it works fine for Chrome/FF/Opera, but Safari writes the the plugin is missing, although I found my plugin in the list of isntalled safari plugins. What am i doing wrong ?
That's real hard to say. Safari on windows isn't supported real well by Apple, so I don't bother supporting it much myself. If it's really important I'd recommend adding logging in all your NPP_ methods (and your NP_ functions too) and see what is getting called; find out if it even loads your plugin. Often if something doesn't go as the browser wants during startup it will act like it didn't find it at all.
You could also use Process Monitor to see if it is trying to load the file or not.
Is there a development tool plugin for Safari much like how there exists the Firebug plugin for Firefox?
Firebug is great, but Safari provides its own built-in development tools.
If you haven't already tried Safari's development kit, go to Safari-->Preferences-->Advanced, and check the box next to "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
Once you have the Develop menu enabled, you can use the Web Inspector to get a lot of the same functionality that Firebug provides.

Why do you want to use Firebug if Safari already comes with great Developer tools? :)
As Matt said, you can enable them from the preferences menu.
Here you will find an overview, summarized, of the Safari's Web inspector, and how to use it:
Other than the builtin developer tools, there is none that i know of. You might, however, be able to use Firebug Lite.
The Safari built in dev tool is great. I have to admit that Firebug on Firefox is my long time favorite, but I think that the Safari tool do a great job too!
If you want firebug for Safari, you just have to go to the apple extensions and search for Firebug
Firebug
I work a lot with CSS panel and it's too slow in Safari Web Inspector. Apple knows about this problem and promise to fix this bug with freezes, except this thing web tools is much more powerful and convenient than firebug in mozilla, so waiting for fix.
Firebug lite plugin in Safari extensions didn't work (it's made by slicefactory, I don't think it's offical).
btw, #2 works for me!
The reason I ask is because every e-mail that I get with a link attached I keep getting " Platform Version 1.9.0.4 not compatible with min version>=1.9.0.5 max version<=1.9.0.5.
I don't have a clue how to get rid of xul runner or what I need to do in order for my computer to accept xul or whatever I need to do. Can someone please provide me with step by step (and I mean very explicit step by step) directions on how to do whatever it is I need to do to get this fixed?
XUL is a tool created by Mozilla Corporation (the folks that made Firefox and Thunderbird) to make writing their applications more like writing applications for the web.
With that said, if you're using Firefox to view webmail when you're having this issue or using Thunderbird and having this issue, I would uninstall any plugins you have installed and check it then. If that still doesn't resolve the problem, try uninstalling and reinstalling the application you're using to view the message in.
While this is the wrong place for this question, you could try asking in mozilla support:

Hi I want to create sidebar in Firefox 3 but have no clue how to do this.
I find tutorial on MDC (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Creating_a_Firefox_sidebar) but after installation extension do not work with "not compatible with Firefox 3.0.3" error.
Does anybody have any tip or link to some resource about how to make sidebar?
Well, a Firefox extension, be it a sidebar, toolbar or whatever other type of extension is basically a mix of XUL and Javascript, all packaged nice and tidy into an installer package called an XPI.
For an excelent XUL tutorial see http://xulplanet.mozdev.org/tutorials/xultu/.
For information about building extensions and the package format see https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Building_an_Extension.
For a sidebar you basically have to override the browser's sidebar area by using an overlay. For good overlay information check out MDC and the excerpt at http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/mozilla/excerpt/FirefoxHacks_chap01/.
All you need except the links above is knowledge of XML, some Javascript and a creative mind.
To fix the problem you faced above, you have to specify the correct version of Firefox in the install.rdf file. For Firefox 3 set maxVersion to:
<em:maxVersion>3.*</em:maxVersion>
