Title: Idea for Firefow/chrome/opera plugin
Post by: istar on September 28, 2011, 12:33:29 PM
How about a Bitcoin plugin for those, that allows you to click on a bitcoin adress and select how many bitcoins you want to give/send to that adress.

Something like Richard Stallman described in his speach a few years ago.

Yes, you can open your wallet and copy/paste in the adress. But a plugin that allows you to just click, would make it even easier and also would show the world what Bitcoins are for.

I think that's a wonderful idea, but I suspect that implementing it securely would involve a continual negotiation of a maze of twisty little html/javascript/CSRF/etc. vulnerabilities, all subtly different.

Shouldn't be too hard just send RPC commands into the Bitcoin client. But I guess that could be a security problem as well too scince a program could be scanning the ram or somthing lol I dont know knowing about C++ application security....

There isn't any. You have to provide your own. :)
