Hi,

For some years I have be using Google Chrome, this is one of the reasons... Now, I would like to change to Firefox if this could be possible.

Is it possible to translate a page in the same tab were it is opened, like on Google Chrome browser? I have tried Imtranslator, or QGTranslate or Google Translator addons for FIrefox, and all of them translate the page opening it in a new tab, and it doesn't help me at all.

I really need this because I log on to some websites, and if the translator change the tab, I will not be logged in any more in the new opened translated tab.

Thank you.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want. Some will not only translate selected text, but the whole page as well.
