Trying unsucessfully to install a translation add-on to Firefox 11

Having lost the translation feature of my Google toolbar, since I no longer have the toolbar, I am looking for something else. I have tried a few of the translation add-ons, but none seem to work. They all (at least all that I have tried) are listed as not compatible with Firefox 11. Any suggestions?

What are you trying to translate, is Google Translate any good for your purposes ? (Google translate does not use the Google toolbar) http://translate.google.com/

At this time I don't have anything to translate, however I found the translate feature of the toolbar very handy. I like being able to translate in place, without having to navigate to a different site. It is really a matter of convenience rather than necessity.

Thank you for the suggestion. Fast Translation add-on worked for me. The add-on manager said it was incompatible, but it lied.

This does not translate the page like the Google tool bar did

I tried all of these none translate the page like the Google tool bar. Guess I will have to go back to the older Firefox. I really miss that.
