Youtube Tooltip 1.3.3

Youtube Tooltip version 1.3.3 has just been released on the Google Code site. The Firefox Add-on site update is still awaiting approval.

I abandoned this add-on after version 1.3.2, mostly in frustration with the add-on review process. They seem to have improved the review process, and I've made a handful of improvements to help really improve the add-on.

Changelog:
* Added https Youtube link support.
* Localized Javascript Strings.
* Added additional locales (From BabelZilla).
* Fixed tooltip for links that contain inner HTML elements.
* Fixed bug that showed old tooltips on non-link HTML elements.
* Added 500 character limit on description in tooltip.
* Changed regular expressions to allow matching for nested Youtube links.
* Added code to 'unescape()' nested Youtube links.

Youtube Tooltip v1.3.2

Youtube Tooltip version 1.3.2 has just been released on the Google Code site. The Firefox Add-on site update is still awaiting approval.

Unfortunately the wait time for add-on approval was very long. I recently found out that my add-on was outputting an error on the Error Console (due to DOMParser) and that I needed to fix this to be approved. I have fixed the issue and resubmitted.

Changelog:
* Changed from DOMParser to XMLHttpRequest to simplify code and avoid Error Console output.
