Hi,

I like this script and I was wondering what I would need to change to extract the email addresses to be able to export it?

Thanks.

the FB email addresses are converted to an image and are not extractable through normal methods. The URI used to create the .jpg file is a token sent back to FB which is a lookup to their internal database and does not represent the actual email address. OCR would have to be used and there are no guarantees when it comes to accuracy.

This FF add-on converts the e-mail images into standard mailto: links: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/...
Would it be possible to modify this script to dump also the e-mail addresses if the add-on is installed? (I would like to import my FB contacts into LinkedIn.)
