Firefox 4.0 NoScript Download attachments error

Post by sickanpickan »

Problem with downloading attachments in Gmail (Firefox 4.0)
Since today (has worked just fine - always - up until today) downloading attachments from Gmail to my computer is not working. :geek: :idea:

I'm redirected to a new page with the error message: "This content cannot be displayed in a frame".
I can't go back to my inbox after that by hitting the back button in the browser, instead I have to type the URL.

With help från Gmail Support we discovered that NoScript (2.1.1.1) is the culprit in this case.

I disabled the addon and - viola - everything works just fine!
(I haven't done anything that can explain this from one day to another. I have not installed, changed or removed anything!)

Tried different versions (2.1.1.1 / 2.1.1 / 2.1.0.2) but none of them worked, all of them gave me the same error (above). :cry:

Thinking there might be some issue here?

Hopefully this can be resolved because Firefox without NoScript isn't really an option ;)

Help appreciated.

What do you get in the messages section (blue) of your Tools>Error Console?
Also, how does your noscript.frameOptions.whitelist about:config preference look like?
Anyway, as a work-around you can turn your noscript.frameOptions.enabled about:config preference to false (it will probably be disabled on next release anyway for users of Firefox 4 and above, since now X-Frame-Options support is a built-in browser feature).

Hi again!

You are a trooper! :D

This solved my problem!
noscript.frameOptions.enabled about:config preference to false

\(^o^)/

Thank you! :D

1)
Tools Error Console - this one have been disabled throughout so I don't know what might have been stated there or how to retrieve any info about the errors (sorry about that)
2.)
noscript.frameOptions.parentWhitelist; https://mail.google.com/*


Wonderful & thank you again!
:mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Huh? Implementation differences?

This, or more likely an extensions conflict, since I couldn't reproduce.

I just started having this problem with Firefox 5.0 and NoScript 2.1.1.2

Same thing, in Gmail, when trying to download an attachment, I get that same message. When I saw that message, I opened the Error Console as you requested and got this message:
X-FRAME-OPTIONS: blocked http://mail-attachment.googleusercontent.com/attachment/u/0?ui={deprecated for privacy}
My noscript.frameOptions.whitelist looks like:
noscript.frameOptions.parentWhitelist;https://mail.google.com/*
I guess I can go ahead and use the work around, but will the changes to the about:config for NoScript be reset when the next build is updated?

You just need latest development build.
