What’s new in version 1.0?

                Narrower is a simple extension for dealing with annoyingly wide websites.

Usage:

To add margins to a wide page, click on the extension icon and drag the slider.
To return the page to it's previous state, either drag the margin slider to 0%, or refresh the page.

How it works:

When you drag the margin slider, Narrower changes the padding value of `document.documentElement`. It then leaves the selected margin in a cookie, so it can be recalled the next time you activate the extension on the site.

Known issues:

Changing the padding of the document element doesn't work on 100% of the pages. If a page doesn't become narrower as a result of using the extension, you can always resort to manually changing the browser window size.            

How to install Narrower?

You could download the latest version crx file or older version files and install it.

Please add a feature to remember plugin settings for website!

Another vote for some ability to save the narrower setting per website! For frequently viewed and refreshed pages, it is really annoying to have to continually reenable.

Great but lacking the critical feature of automatically enabling the extension on specific websites.
