Here's the deal with my investigation on the matter:

Mozilla removed the old API in their version because of security issues and not being official standard - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Archive/Mozilla/JavaScript_crypto

No back compatibility , nothing.

In future it is going to be replaced by the Web Crypto API

   http://caniuse.com/#feat=cryptography
   http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/dn302338(v=vs.85).aspx
   which is a total nonsense because it doesn't support certificates.

If you want to enable it in Firefox 33 type about:config as URL and then set:

dom.webcrypto.enabled = true

Finally here's more on the problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNzTCoxr2ek

So millions of users are left without the online signing with imported certificates under Firefox and there's nothing on the horizon coming for any of the browsers.


WTH?

You are not even close to an alternative! Now just watch the darn youtube clip. There is not even a remote sign this will ever be implemented properly in your new web crypto api.

For those people who upgraded and still want to use certificates in Firefox - here is a solution: just set dom.unsafe_legacy_crypto.enabled=true in about:config. And then for how long will this option be available?
