For internet explorer, you might want to check this answer: Developing Internet Explorer Extensions?
For Firefox Extensions, you can either create xul based extensions, or the ones with the new addon-sdk. You can see a chart with a comparison here.
In both cases, you work with javascript and xul or/and html and css.
For Google Chrome, you use javascript, html and css. For quick start links see the info page of google-chrome-extension page

Chrome use HTML as a content markup language, CSS is used for styling, and JavaScript for scripting. You can check the following guide from Google [Developer Guide Chrome Extension](https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/devguide.html) – 5566 Jul 18 '13 at 06:46
