How to make ixEdit work

I have www.ixedit.com installed on a website to create some jquery code to hide/show form elements.

However it is not working in FF as it says its needs Google Gears to run.

How can I get this working as Google Gears is no longer available?

Thanks

It appears IxEdit is an abandoned product.

Building your own support for Gears in the absence of an official Google release seems like it could be a huge waste of time.

On the other hand, spending a few hours migrating the script from Gears database code to HTML5 database code might be an interesting project. It's GPL-licensed, so you certainly are free to do that. (The source is available on the download page using the uncompressed link.)
