[RESOLVED] 1.9.5 breaks Split Browser extension

Post by Vyper »

Yesterday I updated my NoScript (the ONLY change I made to my Firefox) and now my Split Browser extension doesn't work. Disabling NoScript allows it to work properly.

Rolling back to an earlier version of NoScript allows it to work properly as well. I was using version 1.9.4.91 ..... is there a way to reinstall that version until this problem is resolved or do I have to rollback all the way to 1.9.3.3?

noscript.net/feed?t=b

BTW, can you be more detailed about the symptoms?
And can you confirm 1.9.4.91 didn't break Split Browser?

I'm not sure what that means and I would confirm it if I can find it to re-install it. :)


Oh, more detail ...... when I would try to split a tab the browser would just sit there until I clicked anywhere and then the split panel would open but the tab wouldn't load. Nor would the browser restart when I told it to. I would have to kill the firefox process then start the browser normally.

I'm assuming that's an rss feed. I went and got 1.9.5.1 but have the same problem.

Yes, it's a RSS feed with the previous versions as you asked.
BTW, I cannot reproduce this issue at all.
Maybe there's a 3rd extension which is interacting with NoScript and SplitBrowser causing your problem.
Could you try Standard Diagnostic keeping NoScript enabled?

I don't understand why this is happening but here it is:

I upgraded to Firefox 3.5 and had numerous extensions which were automatically disabled, one of which was Tab Mix Plus. Yet I still had the problem described above.

But, I went to the TMP forum and got his latest build that is supposed to work and installed it and it works fine and the above problem never changed so I didn't give it a second thought.

After doing the standard diagnostic as you recommended, I narrowed it down to, yup, you guessed it, Tab Mix Plus. The problem disappears until I re-enable TMP. So somewhere there has to be a conflict with NS, TMP and Split Browser together.

That leaves me with a choice of running an earlier version of NS or not using TMP or not using Split Browser.

I'll probably go without the Split Browser as it's more of a convenience than something I consider 'necessary'. :(
