Bug report: Echofon Addon Incompatibility

Post by Tairgire »

Using Firefox 12.0, Echofon 2.4.2, and NoScript 2.3.9.

NoScript updated automatically and I noticed that my Echofon sidebar is not working as expected -- the menu from the button is not available. It wasn't getting updates (which may not be NoScript's problem) and I can't force a refresh because the menu is not available. With Echofon installed, I have a blue circular icon to the right of my address bar and search bar. It has a drop-down combo for the menu and this menu usually has a "refresh timeline" option on it which I can use to force a refresh, as well as many other options. Instead, it only shows "Echofon" and a blank line under if the sidebar portion is closed, and if the sidebar portion is open, the drop-down combo doesn't work at all.

Troubleshooting:
- If I disable NoScript, the button works as expected again, consistently.
- I also briefly had it work even with NoScript enabled when a link opened a new browser window (as opposed to new tab), but I could not replicate that situation on further attempts.
- I went to the actual Echofon site and allowed it fully to see if that was the issue, but it did not help.

Sorry, I couldn't authorize Echofon through OAuth, even on a fresh Firefox 12 profile (with no extensions or custom preference).
It seems Echofon has some major issues of its own with Firefox 12...

Yes, I'm beginning to think the problem lies with Echofon and not with NoScript -- that it's perhaps some sort of caching problem that disabling and re-enabling NoScript seemed to fix, but was really being fixed just be frequent reloads of the browser. It was initially consistent, but it is not consistent now and I can't replicate in my second environment (which wasn't available yesterday). Disregard the report and blame it on Echofon for now. Thanks for your attention to this.
