allowURLbarJS for Omnibar

[Municipal Hare]

Running NS together with the Omnibar extension brings a snare: keyword bookmarklets no longer run on non-whitelisted sites. The text of the script sits in the bar and doesn't execute. I've created XSS exceptions for the bookmarklet sources and set allowURLbarJS to true. It could be that Omnibar takes the place of the URL bar but doesn't fully register as such.

Observations so far:

• Bookmarklets do run from Omnibar on whitelisted sites.
• With Omnibar disabled, trusted bookmarklets run as expected from the URL bar, even on non-whitelisted sites.
• Manually clicking a bookmarklet works in all circumstances.

I am on Win7, Firefox 5.0, NS 2.1.1.1, Omnibar latest.

Using keyword searches, without using any extension, I don't seem to have any problem (SeaMonkey 2.1 aka FF4).

Right, therube, because keyword searches don't use JS syntax. Try the following if you get a free minute: add Up Level, a simple backspace-up-the-path bookmarklet, to your toolbar. Click once to make sure it works. Next right click and give it the keyword "up" under Properties. See if typing "up" in Omnibar on non-whitelisted tabs fails.

Still no issues.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:5.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/5.0

New install of FF5, new Profile, new install of NoScript, add "UP" & set as keyword.

(Now "Omnibar" is the "location bar", not that Google thing, right?)

You know, all I can say is -holes!

Odd. I just replicated the problem as described upthread on another machine. TenFourFox 4.0.2 (PowerPC G4-compatible Firefox fork) fresh install, Omnibar 0.7.7.20110418.

Not sure what you're asking here.

Originally I had no idea what Omnibar was, then I find out & post it & then a bit later it eludes me again.
How quickly I loose sight.

Anyhow, I install NoScript & this Omnibar & still have no issues.


Oh, BTW, re: "Up Level"; In SeaMonkey, an Alt+Up_Arrow, takes you Up one Level .
