Under Linux (openSUSE 11.4, KDE 4.7.1), running Firefox 6.0.2 and NoScript 2.1.2.9rc1, attempts to export the whitelist presents

Next, navigate to the desired destination:
click "Save" and the response is
Circumvention:
At the initial display (above), click on "Home" in the upper-left (or any valid destination), and receive
Navigate to the desired destination, and provide an alternate filename, if desired:
click "Save", and the whitelist is correctly exported.
(Take note that under Windows, the initial export panel correctly anchors to "My Documents" (Windows/XP).)

Fixed in latest development build 2.1.3rc1.

Re: Export Whitelist error under Linux
Installed and tested above build. Export anchors to the users home (the Linux userid). The export function sets the default exported file name to the userid, and may be changed to any valid filename, including appending ".txt", if desired, for Windows.Giorgio Maone wrote:Fixed in latest development build 2.1.3rc1.
