Version 2.6.9.36 update kills local links

[peter_b]

I've now tested it again with Firefox 42 + NoScript v2.7:
Local file links don't work anymore
When I click the link, nothing happens.

I've tried the CAPS method in the past, but it didn't work. Will give it another shot.

Any feedback from others to get local links working with NoScript again?

There hasn't been any update on this in months.

Are local links permanently gone?

I'm running Firefox 45.0.2 and NoScript 2.9.0.11

By CAPS method do you mean to add

user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "localfilelinks");
user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.sites", "http://engineeringserver");
user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.checkloaduri.enabled", "allAccess");

to the prefs.js file? If so this does not work for me. Do I need to uninstall NoScript to get this to work?

Help or even just information that this is being looked at would be appreciated.

Correction to my previous post.

I looked at the prefs.js file again and found that the lines were re-arranged and one line was missing. I added the missing line back in and (after being re-arranged again) the CAPS method is working (with NoScript installed).

Final result in prefs.js

user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.checkloaduri.enabled", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.sites", "http://myserver");
user_pref("capability.policy.maonoscript.checkloaduri.enabled", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.maonoscript.javascript.enabled", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.maonoscript.sites", "addons.mozilla.org afx.ms ajax.g[snip long line]
user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "localfilelinks");
