Bearing in mind Jerry's caveat that you can't do this from a website
to a client at all, you can have a script on your machine, running php
there, to read your own Mozilla address boo. The file format that the
mozilla address books are in is a Mork file database, which is a very
elaborate text format that can be easily parse into data sturctures.
There's parser libraries for perl, python, c++ but not yet for php. Some
details of the format can be found at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mork .
