open link in new tab not working with noscript on

Post by Guest »

Hi
I have firefox 3.68 and current 2.0.2.5rc1 noscript and noticed that for several builds if i click on link which point to site different from the one i now one it opens link in current one instead of new one. If noscript is disabled everything works ok. IU even Disabled all extensions i have and everything is ok I enable some extensions and it still works but as soon i enable noscript problems occours. It doesn't matter if if tab mix plus extension is on it doesn't work if noscript is on. Any suggestions?

URL?

Toggle Options | Advanced -> Untrusted => Attempt to fix JavaScript links & see if that makes a difference.
(It could be because of that setting, though typically it is left enabled.)

unfortunately this doesn't help even after browser restart
Go here http://www.ntcompatible.com/
Look for third title from top it will list some reviews
Click read more at the end of list
New page will open in current tab which is ok cause it still same site
Now click on any read more on this page and it should open in a new tab cause those reviews are located on different sites but in my case it opens in current tab
For trouble shooting purposes I disabled all extensions to find possible conflict and found it works ok
Then i started enabling them back one at a time in order of importance and restarting browser
As soon noscript got enabled problem came back

I don't see anything wrong. What you see is the expected behavior. If I disable JavaScript through Firefox Options, I observe this behavior in a clean test profile that has no extensions installed, i.e. the link opens in the same tab. Since NoScript blocks ntcompatible.com by default, this behavior should be observed if NoScript is installed with its default settings, which I just verified. If I allow JavaScript from ntcompatible.com, then the link opens in a new tab.
