[Unrelated] how to get Amazon "wishlist" bookmarklet working

Post by nft76 »

I would like to use the Amazon bookmarklet which lets you add any page to your Amazon wishlist...

I can do this in IE, where there is no NoScript.
I can't get it to work in Firefox, with NoScript, even if I enable NoScript's "Allow scrupts Globally" and AdblockPlus's "Disable Everywhere".

Any bright ideas or suggestions? (The only forum posts I can find date to 2011; there's nothin obvious in the FAQ)

Thanks in advance...

OK - so I go to extensions and turn off Adblock Plus, and Abine/Blur.
Restart firefox.
set NoScript to Allow Scripts everywhere.
still no show.
In desperation, disable NoScript & restart.
*Still* noshow.

Code: Select all

The resource at "https://www.amazon.co.uk/wishlist/add.js?loc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dpreview.com%2Farticles%2F4788790204%2Fshooting-with-the-canon-powershot-g3-x%3Futm_campaign%3Dinternal-link%26utm_source%3Dfeatures-default%26utm_medium%3Dhomepage-block%26ref%3Dfeatures-default&b=AUWLBookenGB" was blocked because tracking protection is enabled.
Ah! So it's Firefox, not NoScript!
I'm stuffed!

Any ideas gratefully welcomed but I realise this is not the place to sort it out :cry:

Marked as Unrelated.

You should be able to disable Firefox's tracking protection somewhere in about:preferences (I don't use Fx I don't know where that setting would be)

You might report this as a tracking false positive to whoever maintains Firefox's anti-tracking list.

You might try asking for help @ mozillaZine Forums if you need more help and we can't provide it.
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!
