Using Rikaichan in Firefox 3.0 Sunday June 29
For those of you that speak Japanese, are studying Japanese, or otherwise have any need to instantaneously look up Japanese characters on web pages, I recommend Rikaichan.
I was using Firefox 2 when it notified me on June 22nd that a Rikaichan update was available. I installed it, as normal, and then a few days later updated to Firefox 3 when it came out to the general public.
At that point, Rikaichan stopped working -- or rather, the installed Japanese-English dictionary was no longer appearing as a compatible plug-in for Firefox 3.
Should anyone have the same problem and stumble upon this page, simply uninstall the dictionary (leave the plug-in itself), and then re-download and install it. This fixed my installation, and I am sure it would sort out the bugs in yours as well.
Versioning. Sigh.
