URL&p Extension

NB! This is a dead project! It's not supported anymore, so there is no guarantee that it will work on latest browser's versions.

It's useful for people who have to open one URL with different parameter values (for example, some prototype with different page ID-s).

All you need is to describe your URL in the Options (only one time after installation) and insert parameter into extension filed.

* Spaces at the end and beginning of the inserted parameter will be trimmed
* Skype formatting ([DATE] NAME: parameter) will be trimmed
* Shows history of 5 last values
