[Resolved] Firefox 19, Noscript, and Gmail's new compose
Posted: Thu Feb 21, 2013 8:56 pm
I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1, Firefox 19, and Noscript 2.6.5.8rc2.
I am trying to use the new Gmail compose. After clicking on "Compose", a blank email form appears in the bottom right corner of the screen on top of the existing page contents (the old compose simply took the user to a new page containing the blank email form). I can click in the "To" section to place the cursor there and begin typing, and I can do the same with the "Subject" section. However, I cannot place the cursor in the large section where the email message would be typed. Clicking in that message area takes the cursor away from the "Subject" section but nothing at all happens when I begin to type. Choosing the NoScript option of "Allow Scripts Globally" makes no difference to my problem. I tried resetting NoScript back to default, clearing all cookies, and disabling all addons except for NoScript. Still my problem remains. However, disabling NoScript solved the problem but that is hardly a solution.
I don't know why this problem exists, nor do I know how to solve it within the NoScript settings. Any suggestions would be extremely welcome, and I thank you for your time and courtesy.
