how can i select multiple images at one go?

more options

Suppose there a numerous images in a webpage which are lined up in columns in the following manner:

1.jpg 2.jpg 3.jpg 4.jpg 5.jpg 6.jpg 7.jpg 8.jpg 9.jpg 10.jpg . . . n+1.jpg

Now i simply select the last image that is 10.jpg and all the images above upto 1.jpg are automatically selected or vice versa that is i select 1.jpg and all the images below upto 10.jpg are automatically selected.

Is there any trick/keyboard shortcut to do that?

Pressing shift and up/down key takes too much time and is much tedious so is there any better way?

What do you want to do with those selected images?

Note that you can see all media links on the "Tools > Page Info > Media" window and can select multiple links in the usual way with the Shift and Control keys and a left mouse click.

but that's the problem i dont want to use shift and up/down keys as it gets tedious. Supposing there are 900-1000 images,it will become time consuming. Is there any better and fast way to select that much images at one go?

See if this extension will help you. http://www.foxyspider.com/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxyspider/

Note: it may have quit working in Firefox 31 according to the reviews, so the developer of that extension may need to fix it.
