Installation

Changes

  • SeaMonkey: Switched on a security setting that isn’t used by default for some reason
  • Made tab displayed by “Show tabs on Flash and Java” a link (because of the context menu and ability to middle-click, bug 15638)
  • “Show tabs on Flash and Java” can be used without JavaScript again (bug 15637)
  • Made sure that web pages constantly reloading images won’t increase required memory (bug 15317)
  • No longer relying on extension version reported by the browser (is unreliable in SeaMonkey, forum thread)
  • Firefox: Adblock Plus icon shows up at the right edge of the navigation toolbar by default (forum thread)
  • Increased maxVersion for Songbird to 0.3
  • Removed obsolete file property from install manifest (not required for Firefox 1.5 and higher)
  • No longer using event handler for data storage (bug 15758)
  • Using Gecko’s built-in feature for scrolling to node when selecting in the sidebar — should be less error-prone
  • Improved check for objects opened on its own (tabs shouldn’t be shown for these objects)
