Sometime ago we covered the much useful Copy Title and URL extension for Internet Explorer. For Mozilla Firefox users, there are similar Add-ons available which bring the Copy Title/URL functionality. This article covers two such Firefox Add-ons.

CoLT – Firefox Add-on

CoLT (written by Jonah Bishop) makes it easy to copy the page title and location in a format you specify. Also it can copy a hyperlink’s title and/or URL in a format you specify, via the context-menu.

Start Firefox and install the add-on CoLT from BornGeek.com site. Restart Firefox.

Open a web page, and right-click anywhere on the page. You’ll see the Copy Page Title and Location As command, which contains a submenu that lists the formats for you to choose.

Here is how each format would look like.

If you right-click on a hyperlink, you’ll see the Copy Link Location, Copy Link Text, and Copy Link Title and Location As commands.

CopyTitle – Firefox Add-on

If you’re just in need of a plain Copy Title and URL add-on such as the Copy Title and URL extension for Internet Explorer, then CopyTitle Add-on (by Clemens Fuchslocher) is for you. Thanks to our reader Skorbion for the link.

    How very interesting. One thing that I noted in CoLT is its ability to pickup Wikipedia-style links. Surely, Wikipedians will find this feature extremely useful. Although, I advise them to do what I did: Retire from Wikipedia. ;)

    1. The link to CopyTitle is: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7355
    2. It’s still experimental.
