Hi all!

The only reason why I don't migrate fully to firefox is because of chrome's unique website translation features. I have tried the add-ons in firefox but none does the job correctly.

I wonder how hard it is for firefox to have a similar engine to do the same job. Also, using translate.google.com to translate a website deactivates quite a lot of functionalities like if your for example replying to a google form and etc.

PLEASE firefox make it work!!!

Does that include this add-on  ?

If so : bummer  !

I have and it still cannot interpret things like google forms and it is not very intuitive. What we need is something like the same translation engine as chrome!!
