User reviews
Было нужно дополнение, позволяющее просматривать XLSX-файлы по ссылкам, размещенным в вебе. Это дополнение оказалось лучшим из числа размещенных в репозитарии Mozilla. Дополнение использует облачный офис от Microsoft или Google Docs не выбор. Досадные недостатки: нельзя отключить всплывающие уведомлении при наведении на ссылки документов, нельзя настроить открывать документы сразу в браузере вместо выбора соответствующей кнопки ("full-screen button") во всплывающей превьюшке (которая для электронных таблиц вообще бессмысленна).
