Hi Shweta, By a "floating menu", do you mean a prompt? You should take a look at Prompt.jsm [1] and see if that does what you want. We currently don't have an API detecting a long click on the navigation bar, but wesj is working on that in a bug [2].
The places API used for desktop does not work on mobile because we have a different history/bookmarks database schema. There's a bug filed on making the add-on SDK compatible [3], but it doesn't look like there's been much progress on that (cc'ing jsantell in case he knows more). You can always manually run SQL queries on browser.db (located in the profile directory), but that is not very robust, since our schema could change, and I worry that approach may introduce performance/stability issues for the browser. Hope that helps, Margaret [1] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Extensions/Mobile/API/Prompt.jsm [2] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=853700 [3] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=894628 On Sun, Nov 10, 2013 at 2:47 PM, Shweta <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Hello, > > Using: > > User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux i686; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 > Firefox/25.0 > > > I am developing an addon for the firefox for android.
