Adblock Plus and (a little) more

Second Adblock Plus 1.2 release candidate available · 2010-04-22 07:00 by Wladimir Palant

The current Adblock Plus development build (1.1.3+.2010042202) is the second release candidate for Adblock Plus 1.2. The scheduled release date is April 30th.

Changes since the previous announcement:

• Updated translations: 27 locales are done, two more are complete but being tested
• Opening a new tab from the list of blockable items respects browser preferences, esp. with regards to opening in background (bug 22722)
• Fixed some cases where opening tabs from Adblock Plus in Thunderbird/SeaMonkey would trigger the default browser unnecessarily
• Improved Fennec (Firefox Mobile) integration, using the site menu in Fennec 1.1 to display Adblock Plus status
• Thunderbird: moved Adblock Plus toolbar icon to the message header which is a better place for it
• A bunch of minor tweaks around toolbar icon in Thunderbird and SeaMonkey
• Added $elemhide option for exception rules to disable element hiding on a page, unlike $document this option doesn’t affect frames embedded in a page or items matching blocking rules (forum topic)

   Dev build breaks http://imgur.com/

   With ABP active, the file upload hangs. Deactivate ABP and it works.

   I just checked it here on Ubuntu 10.04 and Firefox 3.6 with the latest dev build. I just uploaded a picture on imgur.com without any issues.
