Domain guessing broken in Nightly

[joeg]

Still doesn't work with a new profile. If I enter foxnews for example it will do a search with the default search engine which is Yahoo.

Thank you for your effort.

I think you have go into about:config and set "keyword.enabled" to false. If I understand things correctly, this turns the search function off in the address field.

Yep, that's what you have to do. I'm glad i have this feature again. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Joe.

You're very welcome, streetwolf. I'm very happy to have been able to provide a bit of help to one of the best participants in the Builds list.

WFM in my old profile. I just typed "google.co" and it redirected me correctly to Google.

Thanks. How about if you only type "Google"?

It uses default search engine.
Also don't forget that setting keyword.enabled to false in about:config is only partial workaround, as if it didn't find the website with ".com" it will shown error instead of searching it with default search engine.

As I've written, in order to stop the search function, you have to set keyword.enabled to false in about:config.

What do you mean with a "partial workaround"; a partial workaround to what?

... if it didn't find the website with ".com" it will shown error instead of searching it with default search engine.

You seem to be missing my point: Please try to understand that I don't want it to search with ANY search engine. I want the "domain guessing" function to work.

OK, an hour of testing has proven beyond a doubt (to me, at least) that it's NoScript (I'm using v. 2.9.0.11) - and only NoScript - that's breaking domain guessing in NIGHTLY. I've looked through all the options, but I wasn't able to find anything that might be related.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you.

P.S. Just to make this clear, whatever the problem is, it's only in Nightly; domain guessing works in Beta, even with NoScript enabled.

Contact the NoScript developer.

Contact the NoScript developer.

Thanks. I have.

In case anyone's interested, domain guessing works with NoScript enabled in Beta 48.0b2 (candidate).

@ joeg - partial workaround, as you had both "features" working in Beta, not in Nightly,
but good thing that you finally found the culprit which was NoScript, that's why I requested to try it with new profile.

OK, thanks.
