Is there any possibility to download (show) images at a certain current page while the browser is in Images-off mode

more options

I have turned automatic image downloading off (Tools - Settings - Content Tab - Automatically download imags) and want to show images at one no-particular (random, no matter what it is) page. Is there a solution?

Thank you.

Try this extension instead:

Firefox has never had a page-by-page "show images" feature, perhaps because there usually has been an add-on to provide that option. Of the ones that popped up in a search on the Add-ons site, and based on 3 minutes of testing, this one seems to be the best match for your request:

Show Picture :: Add-ons for Firefox

It adds "Show All Pictures" to the right-click context menu and unlike some other extensions does not need to reload the entire page to display the images.

(Note that if you disable or remove the add-on, the "Load Images Automatically" setting may be left turned off.)

Thank you, jscher2000, very much. This plugin is almost 100% useful, but there is one notice for those who wants to use it. It doesn't shows background images when you choose 'Show all images' in a context menu. Instead of that there are some more useful commands like 'Show the biggest image' and a couple more. I suppose the problem is solved, thanks again.
