Hi J,

Your only option is to try a proprietary signature plugin.
There are many, most of them are in the form of Java applets.
Some are free, including open source, some are licensed.

Personally I think that you should try to live with the
client-side time-stamp because it adds some evidence to
the on-line transaction.  Commercial signature plugins
AFAIK, almost always insert time-stamps and often
other things as well, like the URI of the requester.

A signature without any environmental attributes (context)
seems a bit "naked" in my opinion.

Subject: Problem with crypto.Signtext and A PKCS #9 signing time attribute


Hi all,
I´m looking for a signing tool which allows me to sign a text in Mozilla
Firefox (now I´m using version 2.0 of this browser). I found
crypto.Signtext function, but this tool adds a PKCS#9 signing time
attribute that I want to avoid.

¿Anyone knows how I could sign text, forms, etc from Firefox 2.0 without
any kind of extra attribute in the final signature?

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

PD1: I have tried with secclab extension, but it doesn´t install
properly in Firefox 2.0
PD2: ¿It would be posible to create a "custom Signtext" function which
doesn´t include this time attribute?
