greetings gents, we have built a firefox add-on to do cool things from from the browser. we do the same in our apps and ONLY mozilla supports our growing corporate customer base (apps do not). the product is ready but we face one final challenge: a reasonably easy way to have the users access the our product. to do that, they need to first install the plug-in. we would like to be able to run/execute/access the plugin from a web page ie a URL. i can send more specific needs and requirements but i wanted to open a conversation with you. thank you very much.

hello, i don't exactly understand what you're trying to achieve - however since we are a support forum for users and cannot really give development-oriented advice, your question might be better suited in the addons forum at https://forums.mozilla.org/index.php or a site like stackoverflow.com anyway! thank you for your understanding...
