1 Line of Code Breaking K-Meleon Compatibility

There is a single line of code in Main.js which prevents compatibility with K-Meleon.
Line # 1944

Code: Select all

  geckoVersion: ("nsIXULAppInfo" in  CI) ? CC["@mozilla.org/xre/app-info;1"].getService(CI.nsIXULAppInfo).platformVersion : "0.0",
"mozilla.org/xre/app-info" isn't available in current K-Meleon.

Commenting out this line of code or replacing it with "geckoVersion:"0.0"" allows NoScript to work in KM without any other code modifications.

Thank you, it will be changed into

Code: Select all

geckoVersion: ("@mozilla.org/xre/app-info;1" in  CC) ? CC["@mozilla.org/xre/app-info;1"].getService(CI.nsIXULAppInfo).platformVersion : "0.0",
in next dev build.

Unfortunately a new complication has arisen 2.0.9.7rc1. The new doctype definitions in the XULs aren't compatible.

old code:

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE dialog [
<!ENTITY % noscript SYSTEM "chrome://noscript/locale/noscript.dtd" >
%noscript;
<!ENTITY % noscriptFB  SYSTEM "chrome://noscript/content/en-US/noscript.dtd" >
%noscriptFB;
]
>
new code that doesn't work:

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE dialog SYSTEM "chrome://noscript/locale/noscript.dtd">

After further testing, there are other XUL incompatibilities in 2.0.9.7rc1. I will try to isolate the exact issues.

Please do it. If they're a reasonable subset, I could setup a packaging script making the changes on the fly to keep K-Meleon builds in sync.


BTW, does the DTD problem above mean that previous NoScript versions used to work on KM but always in English, no matter what the browser's language was?

OK,I'll let you know.

This question I'll have to pose to the K-Meleon user-base as I have only tried it in English.


I should mention, your fix for the original problem with Main.js does work fine.

read my latest post in this K-meleon forum thread.
the new doctype definitions problem also occurs with latest stable version of noscript which is version 2.0.9.6.
