Pike's Mozilla Firefox Extensions

@fungus

Could you check your JS Console for errors and report any here (you may have to go to about:config and set javascript.options.showInConsole to true to see extension errors).

Could you also tell me what settings you are using in Clone Window's options dialog.

nm, my mistake.

0.2.6 appears to work as intended now.

I was using 1.5 and 0.2.3 i have since updated to 0.2.6 (which got rid of the big fat bar in the bottem with the ^ in it) but am unable to use the CTRL + N for new window since it gives me nothing (not even a window without cloned content)

In my JS console i get (when pressing CTRL + N)

Error: this.handler has no properties
Source File: chrome://clonewindow/content/clonewindow.js
Line: 104

Hope that helps.
I really enjoy all your extensions they're great work!

If you need more info or for me to test a version or somesuch, I can be contacted at lauster.dk @gmail

@Lauster

Thanks for the bug report, I've sent you an e-mail.

Hello,
CloneWindow is incompatable with DP 1.6a1. Watch out for the trap.
Thanks

@Pike.
Haven't received anything, sure you sent it to: <removed> ? :)

@mrneophyte

I've just tested CW with the latest trunk nightly and it seems to work for me, could you expand on what you mean by "incompatable", e.g. what exactly happens, does the JS console say anything, etc.

p.s. sorry for the delay in responding.

I removed Clone Window because when it was installed the New Window button didn't work. Now it works, but the new window has no history, which is, I imagine, what CW was supposed to do. If I reinstall it, how can I open a new window?

@Michael

Did you try upgrading to the latest version from this page?

Hi,
The extension's description isn't transaltable, could you fix it ?

just to add a line in "bookmarkbackup.js" file :
pref("extensions.{3474c305-9dad-11d8-9207-00055d74c2e4}.description", "chrome://bookmarkbackup/locale/bookmarkbackup.properties");
AND
to add a line in "bookmarkbackup.properties" file of all Locale :
extensions.{3474c305-9dad-11d8-9207-00055d74c2e4}.description = The extension's description translated

Are you OK ?

oopss, it's not for this extension, but for Bookmark Backup. sorry

Greetings,

Thank you for this very useful extension:

From FF help:

To open a new tab,
press CtrlCmd+T
or select File > New Tab,
or double-click an empty space in the Tab Bar

The 3rd method doesn't open a duplicated tab. Is this by design?

@rlsx

Originally it was an oversight on my part but I never felt the need to change it so I've left it how it is.

Let me vote for correcting the oversight. Is it much work?

@rlsx

I doubt it would be too hard but I suspect that adding this would massively increase the number of extensions that Clone Window conflicts with.

Thank you for this critical extension. Is it possible to add the same support for the "Open in New Window" context menu item (and for Shift-Clicking of URLs which does the same thing)?

PS, We have been discussing the need for your extension at length at http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=2195677#2195677.

Thanks again,

Sorry, I don't have any plans to support that. However, I'm sure there must be at least one extension somewhere that brings your session history to each new window you open.

Interesting, can I ask why you don't plan to support it? Do you think its not a good idea or just not enough value to you? The latter is clearly perfectly fine, but if you don't think its good idea I am interested why (because I think its a serious problem in Firefox).

Is it possible to get your source so I can take a crack at it (as an option)?
Thanks

@reesd

I think the idea is good but the purpose of this extension is to mimick the New Window behaviour of IE, so your idea is outside the scope of this extension (which I realize is slightly hypocritical, since in a moment of weakness I already allowed some creep, but I don't intend to make the same mistake twice).

p.s. You already have the source, unzip the .xpi (or look in your "<profile>/extensions" dir) and you'll find it. :-)
