Telling you what time it is seems like a trivial task for any modern browser, however many leave the job to your operating system.
However, if you have hidden your clocks and need a way to tell what time it is from Firefox, Statusbar Date is the perfect add-on for the job.
This extension uses format specifiers to allow you to display the date/time in your status bar however you want. You can even mix in regular text with your desired format. Some of the other features are:
- Displays the current date/time in the status bar.
- Left clicking on Statusbar Date toggles it to contract, only showing the icon in the status bar. Clicking on it again will cause it to expand once again.
- Right clicking on Statusbar Date opens the Options dialog.
- Middle clicking on Statusbar Date toggles parts of the format that are enclosed by ( ) to contract/expand.
You can download the Statusbar Date plugin from the Firefox Add-ons web site.
