Question on internet browsing


My problem is next :
I surf the Internet a lot. And i'm looking for a software that will allow me to create some macros and forms for the web-pages i visit. For Windows are easy to find, but i haven't been able to find one that will run in linux.
Any suggestions?
And yes, i'm new to linux. That's my second problem.
EDIT: Forgot to add: I'm using Fedora Core 3.

i think what you're looking for is something like extensions for firefox. these would actually work in windows or linux.

Heres a place to start: https://addons.mozilla.org/extension...ory=Navigation

I've found people have written extensions for virtually everything these days. And its easy to roll your own if you're incliend

Thanks..i found somethimg nteresting, but not exactly what i need. I'm thinking about contacting the person that made the extension, and see if is posible to make a change to it.
And unfortunatelly, i dont have any programing skills.
EDIT: I'm looking for something like i0pus internet macro.

I think there was an extension called "GreaseMonkey" that let people build site specific scripts (or you can build your own, but you said you aren't inclined that way). I would look into that, and just download pre-made scripts.
