[[org.eclipse.higgins.hbxff]] is a Firefox extension written in Javascript that launches an external selector either using [[Higgins Selector Switch]] or directly. This extension is different from and easily confused with the [[Higgins Embedded-Selector Extension for Firefox]] which is a different component entirely.

===Version===
Developed for Higgins 1.1. Available since Higgins 1.1M2

===Overview===
Presuming [[org.eclipse.higgins.hbxff]] is installed and enabled, when your browser lands on a Relying Party (RP) site that is i-card enabled (e.g. includes an <object> tag, etc.), the extension launches an external Selector application. It launches the selector either using [[Higgins Selector Switch]] or directly depending on the preference settings of the extension. 

This extension has the ability to ''directly'' launch these 1.1 selectors:
* [[GTK Selector 1.1-Win]]
* [[AIR Selector 1.1-Win]]
* [[AIR Selector 1.1-Mac]]
As well as directly launch these 1.0 selectors:
* [[GTK and Cocoa Selector 1.0]] 
* [[RCP Selector 1.0]]

===Details=== 
* ''Language:'' Javascript and XUL
* ''Packaging:'' Firefox add-on. Requires Firefox 1.5.x or 2.x running on Windows, OSX, or Linux
