## Description

The Redwax SignText extension and native application allows any website to request a document be signed by the end user using a digital certificate, and the resulting signature be returned to the same website. This provides the crypto.signText() function long supported by Netscape and Firefox.

Signing is provided by the Redwax SignText native extension available at <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/ccba737803afa005a8ca661a14e5aac4cfdb5abc8bafb7654889facbb500a0c2/https%3A//redwax.eu/rst/" rel="nofollow">https://redwax.eu/rst/</a>.
