middleclicknocollapse for Fx 1.5 and 2

Important: For Firefox 3, there's a better extension called Stay-Open Menu. It provides the functionality of middleclicknocollapse and more. You only need middleclicknocollapse if you are using an obsolete version of Firefox. As soon as you can, you should switch to Firefox 3 and Stay-Open Menu.

One of the Firefox 1.0 extensions I found most useful is Omar Khan's middleclicknocollapse. It prevents the bookmarks menu from collapsing when an item is middle-clicked.

It couldn't be installed in Firefox 1.5 or 2.0 because of a change in the way extensions must register their chrome. I couldn't live without middleclicknocollapse, so I modified it to use the new chrome registration method, and I was happily surprised to find that it now works for me.

Warning: If you install this version of middleclicknocollapse, you do so entirely at your own risk. I don't know anything about writing extensions and I don't know much about how or why my modification works. I can't provide any support if it erases your hard drive or kills your pets.

If you've read the warning and want to try it anyway, here it is. Good luck!
