[FIXED] noscript.net/getit lists wrong supported browsers

Post by barbaz »

https://noscript.net/getit wrote:Supported browsers: Firefox 3.0 and above, SeaMonkey 2.0 and above, IceWeasel, Minefield
Other browsers based on Gecko 1.9.0 and above might work, but are not tested.
this text should be updated in light of noscript 2.9.0.1rc2 change to for..of loops which drops compatibility with Gecko < 13. along these lines, Minefield is not supported anymore (too old as IIUC it's pre-release firefox 4.x) - change to Nightly?

Links look correct.
Wording, no.

Thanks for getting to this so fast, looks better but still few corrections needed (highlighted/fixed below) per what therube said:
Users of Firefox 12 and below are urged to upgrade their very unsafe browser. For those few who can't,

latest NoScript version compatible with Gecko 1.9 - Gecko 12 is 2.9.0.1rc1;
latest NoScript version compatible with Gecko < 1.9 is 1.10.
Also is a stray "latest" under the dev build changelog.
