Adblock Plus and (a little) more

K-Meleon builds mostly usable now · 2011-01-28 16:51 by Wladimir Palant

The current development build (Adblock Plus for K-Meleon 1.3.5a2.155) fixes some more issues:

• List of blockable items works correctly now
• Left and middle mouse button clicks on the icons work
• Adding subscriptions from the web (via abp: protocol) is possible
• Dialogs opened by Adblock Plus have more sane sizes, persisting size and position works again as well
• Search in Preferences window working again (worked around K-Meleon bug 1237 but it would still be nice to see this bug fixed)
• extensions.adblockplus.sendReport_key preference is considered properly if set

Remaining known issues:

• K-Meleon crashes if the report link is clicked after submitting the report
• ABP icon state and list of blockable items do not update correctly if a blank tab is open
• “Tabs on Flash and Java” feature doesn’t work
• Size of the “Add filter subscription” dialog is set incorrectly
• Blockable items window cannot be closed with hotkeys (Esc or Ctrl+Shift+V)
• Preferences dialog: “Show in toolbar” option should be hidden

   another issue/problem, Wladimir:

   “Show in toolbar” menu option from ABP’s Options menu from the ABP Preferences dialog box does not work correctly. ABP toolbar icon remains in K-meleon 1.6, EVEN if “Show in toolbar” option is not checked.

   Reply from Wladimir Palant:

   Right, that option should be hidden, it doesn’t do anything in K-Meleon.

   No problems under 7. However, under XP SP3 ABP creates always its own toolbar. No way to move or hide it.

   Thank you, this issue is indeed restricted to Windows XP which is why I wasn’t able to reproduce it on Windows 7. I can see it in a VM now. Looks very much like a K-Meleon bug to me…

   Reply from Wladimir Palant:

   The issue turned out to be more trivial than I thought. Fixed now, a new development build will appear in the list shortly.
