converting wepaged from simp to trad

[aafrophone]

I'm learning mandarin with traditional characters (i like them :-D) however, when i go to a lot of chinese pages to see if i can recognize characters, i realize that a lot of them use simplified characters. is there a way (i use firefox with windows XP) to convert those webpages to traditional characters?

謝謝你們

Yahoo's translator seems to be more accurate more often than not (compared to Google, which doesn't get it right very often IMHO)

Furthermore, the Chinese Yahoo site is easier to use since the English<->Chinese, Traditional<->Simplified language options are all at the top of the drop down list.

There's also an addon for firefox called Tongwen Tang, though for some reason it's not on the Mozilla Site, but you can download it from here. To install it you need to download the .xpi file, and then in Firefox, open the Addons box (Tools->Addons) and just drag the xpi file into the Addons box. This addon will convert characters on a web page from Simplified <-> Traditional at the click of a button, and you don't have to leave the page

Just go to the Firefox add-ons page and search for Gb2Big. After installation, go to View - Toolbars - Customize, then add the Hong Kong flag button. Then whenever you're on a Simplified page, just press the button!

With Tongwen, you can also set it to Auto-Convert. Pretty cool feature.
