FoxClocks 2

FoxClocks 2 is now available for download at addons.mozilla.org. Feature requests, bug reports and general gossip are very welcome in the comments, but if you’re having a problem, please check the FoxClocks FAQ and search the comments below for a solution before posting. Thanks!

Here’s what’s new in FoxClocks 2:

  • Keep up-to-date: automatic time zone database updates
  • Behind a firewall? update automatically from your LAN
  • Choose the right time zone more easily: new Zone Picker
  • Show your clocks in the statusbar/toolbar, just in a tooltip (mouseover), or both
  • Style your clocks: bold, italic, etc
  • Set your clocks to change colour: e.g. make your clocks green from 9 to 5 local time
  • Sort your clocks by name or local time
  • Move your FoxClocks settings between computers

Let us know what you think.

  1. Yes, FoxClocks doesn’t work in Firefox 4.0b1. It _will_ work for the final non-beta, but perhaps not before then.

    Hi!
    The time of Germany is wrong! It is shown as one hour later than in reality. What is the problem?

    Re: tz database 2010i
    Outdated/missing info for Vietnam:
    Hanoi (capital city) not shown
    Saigon is now called Ho Chi Minh City (largest city in Vietnam)

  4. Regarding missing cities, this FAQ is relevant:

    Having said that, I should add Hanoi, since it’s the capital – thanks for letting me know.

    Apparently Ho Chi Minh is still commonly called Saigon…

    This is a really good and helpful tool. Thanks a million!
    Works well with Firefox 3.6.6.
    Hope to see the release for Firefox 4.0 soon.

    Dear Andy,

    Thanks for a great add-on.
    Just wanted to mention that the biggest city of Vietnam no longer is called Saigon, these days it´s called Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC).

    Thanks

    Hi!
    I have downloaded this just now: thanks for this software: I work on the net and hence, had needed such a software for time verification in a few other countries for posting my articles accordingly. It would be of real help to me. Thanks again.
