The FireFox Identity Selector extension implements support for CardSpace on Windows, giving FireFox parity with IE. Additionally, the extension provides the ability to plug-in other Identity Selectors, by implemeting an XPCOM interface, that contains really only a single method. This makes it trivial for the user to choose which Identity Selector they wish to use, and web pages can depend on the consistent implementation of the html elements inside the page itself.

The developer blog for this Firefox extension is http://ignisvulpis.blogspot.com/

Feature List:

Support for both the <object> and <ic:informationcard> syntax.
Support for both JavaScript invocation (using xmlToken.value) and <form> posting (both implicit and using form.submit() ).
Supports object parameters required for the selector . These are scriptable, and most are read/write. I've tried to validate these as much as possible. I'm sure testing will turn up cases I've missed, so I expect this code will need to be updated as items are found. See more details in my post containing samples.
This should support all certificates that Firefox supports.
Pluggable identity selector. The extension creates an XPCOM Interface for Identity Selectors, of which I’ve implemented one that calls Windows CardSpace, and the end user can switch between them (right now, you have to change a pref in about:config , but I’ll add in an options dialog soon).
Error objects should be identical to the IE implementation (for ease of cross-platform web development)
Uninstalls!

Support for both JavaScript invocation (using xmlToken.value) and <form> posting (both implicit and using form.submit() ).
Supports object parameters required for the selector . These are scriptable, and most are read/write. I've tried to validate these as much as possible. I'm sure testing will turn up cases I've missed, so I expect this code will need to be updated as items are found. See more details in my post containing samples.
This should support all certificates that Firefox supports.
Pluggable identity selector. The extension creates an XPCOM Interface for Identity Selectors, of which I’ve implemented one that calls Windows CardSpace, and the end user can switch between them (right now, you have to change a pref in about:config , but I’ll add in an options dialog soon).
Error objects should be identical to the IE implementation (for ease of cross-platform web development)
Uninstalls!

Dec 12, 2006 - Project published. Source code coming soon!

Jan 7, 2007 - OK, soon may have been ambitious over the Christmas season. It's up now. Several folks have already made feature suggestions, so I'll see if updates can be a bit more frequent.

Oct 16, 2007 - A new version (1.0.1) of thisFirefox extension is available.

The FireFox Identity Selector extension implements support for CardSpace on Windows, giving FireFox parity with IE. Additionally, the extension provides the ability to plug-in other Identity Selectors, by implemeting an XPCOM interface, that contains really only a single method. This makes it trivial for the user to choose which Identity Selector they wish to use, and web pages can depend on the consistent implementation of the html elements inside the page itself.

I'll add more details about usage when I post the code. You can also read about this at http://www.perpetual-motion.com/Kevin.

Feature List:

Support for both the <object> and <ic:informationcard> syntax.
Support for both JavaScript invocation (using xmlToken.value) and <form> posting (both implicit and using form.submit() ).
Supports object parameters required for the selector . These are scriptable, and most are read/write. I've tried to validate these as much as possible. I'm sure testing will turn up cases I've missed, so I expect this code will need to be updated as items are found. See more details in my post containing samples.

This is an identity selector for Firefox that works with Cardspace. It extracts information from a certificate and invokes the Cardspace API.

Identity Selector
This particular Identity Selector is a Firefox extension for CardSpace. It was built using XPCOM. It pulls the relevant information regarding certificates from Firefox, and invokes CardSpace.
