Enhancement: JDownloader Referrer URL option

After links are transferred to JDownloader, "right click -> copy url" option will copy referrer url and there's no way to extract the links of the file. The reason for this is said to be the "hidden" links, there seems to be no solution for this in JDownloader side. Discussion about this can be found below:

To my opinion (and as suggested on discussions), "an option for not sending referrer url" (in flashgot options when jdownloader is selected) might solve the problem. Any better ideas?

What about FlashGot Options|Privacy|Use always this referrer URL (blank)?

Are we experimenting if a function of a plugin would fullfill a requirement of another plugin?

I don't use noscript anyway 8-)

It was a typo, corrected now. And there's nothing cool in not using NoScript :cool:

Agghh, I should have noticed that option!

It didn't work anyway, it copied empty url's after leaving it blank.... I think it doesn't want the referrer thing and uses it whether it's empty or not.

maybe there should be another radio button there like this:

- Send autodetected Referrer URL
- Use always this Referrer URL:
- Don't send Referrer URL


what do you think?

Better than this, if referrer is empty and it's an optional parameter for the download manager in use, it shouldn't be sent.
(The less the visible options, the better the UI -- I should really cleanup NoScript's on this respect).
