Firefox extension for CardSpace
Window’s CardSpace client can now be accessed both through IE and Firefox.
Kevin Miller has released a Firefox extension for CardSpace that allows the user to select the identity selector of their choice. The current version only supports MS CardSpace but it should soon support others like xmldap.
It’s nice to be able to store all your cards in a single identity selector and use it for both IE and Firefox. Plus IE isn’t a dependency anymore to test out the CardSpace functionality.
The extension allowed me to login to our relying party at https://infocard.pingidentity.com/rpdemo using a self-issued card. However, if I try to login using a Managed card (getting a card from https://infocard.pingidentity.com/idpdemo) the cards aren’t selectable in my CardSpace client

Hey Ashish!
I found out what went wrong with your managed card login… you can correct it by specifying the tokenType in your . The FF extension is assuming a
urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:assertion
whereas you need a

for your managed card. It’ s probably my fault anyway, as I probably told Kevin to assume “urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:assertion” which isn’t what the IE support does. I’ll file a bug with him now.

Garrett has logged an issue on the project over at codeplex. Sorry for the oversight. This’ll give me something to work on this weekend.
