Adblock Plus and (a little) more

K-Meleon support: three more issues fixed · 2006-10-01 22:55 by Wladimir Palant

A new Adblock Plus development build for K-Meleon has been uploaded.

Note: Minimal required browser version is K-Meleon 1.02.

Installation

To install, unzip the package into your K-Meleon application directory (e.g. “C:\Program files\k-meleon”), it will put all the files into the right places. You might also want to add a menu entry for Adblock Plus, to do so put the following line into the file menus.cfg in you profile, maybe after “macros(JSConsole,JavaScript &Console)”:

adblockplus(Preferences,Ad&amp;block Plus)

Everything else is configured automatically.

Known issues

~~Subscription suggestions dialog causes each toolbar to be placed on a separate line (only visible in the Russian version of K-Meleon for some reason)~~
~~K-Meleon sometimes crashes on exit (only visible in the Russian version of K-Meleon for some reason)~~
Window size isn’t restored when re-opening Preferences or Blockable items
Context menu and tooltip for the icons not yet implemented
Due to heavy use of non-frozen API the plugin won’t work with Gecko 1.9 without recompiling
Middle mouse button doesn’t work properly in blockable items
~~Toolbar icon uses a whole line for itself by default, needs to be moved/resized~~ (thanks to Quicksilver tears)

Known limitations

Shortcut key preferences like extensions.adblockplus.enable_key use Win32 virtual key codes instead of Gecko’s virtual key codes
Blockable items must stay detached, K-Meleon’s sidebar implementation isn’t complete yet
Blockable items window is always on top and refers to all browser windows
Status bar icon doesn’t react to middle-clicks
Toolbar icon cannot be hiden via Adblock Plus options, only via View / Toolbars menu
