Operator was an extension for the Mozilla Firefox web browser.^[1]^[2] It parses^[2] and acts upon a number of microformats,^[1]^[2]^[3] as well as validating them.^[2]

Operator lets the user access microformats through a number of methods, all of which are optional: a toolbar, a toolbar button, a status bar icon, a location bar icon, or a sidebar.

It has native support for several microformats:

adr (adr spec) (postal addresses)
hCard (contact/ address information)^[4]
hCalendar (events)^[4]
Geo (geographic coordinates)
rel-tag

and is extensible,^[5] in that users can add new actions for the included microformats, or specify additional microformat recognition.

Operator was written by Mike Kaply of IBM.^[6] It forms the basis for Firefox 3's microformats API,^[5]^[7] allowing native support, but has no direct user interface, due to lack of consensus on the implementation in the GUI.^[5]
