Extension summary

A simple and small extension to check all kind of records on MXtoolbox. I created this because I need to check A and MX records often and this saves me time.

Usage: Default the extension starts with a: (A record), just fill in the domain name and hit go. To check other kinds of information, like MX records or whois information, just type mx: or whois: instead of a: It's also possible to check MX and A records directly from the context menu.

Changelog:

Version 1.4:

Version 1.3:

  • On request added focus on input field when opening popup
