What It Does
Sites like Reddit display the relative time, i.e., 1 year ago with an Html time tag.
The html time tag has an attribute that specifies the full timestamp.
That attribute gets displayed when you hover your mouse over it.
This extension configures the Firefox browser to display the timestamp attribute content in a small box next to each timestamp
How It Works
- Finds all time elements on a page
- Gets the tooltip text (normally only shown on hover)
- Creates a small inline box containing this tooltip text
- Places this box right after the time element
- Monitors for dynamically added content
Useful For
- Reddit posts and comments (shows exact time instead of just "2 hours ago")
- Any site where complete timestamp information is hidden in tooltips
