Just installed the FF 1.5 release versionand immediate i noticed that i have a problem that the undo action doesnt appear in the rightclick menu. After some searching i found that the user_pref("browser.startup.page", 0); in my prefs.js is causing it. Well i use that line so FF starts quicker without loading the homepage. I have a whole chain of sites in browser.startup.homepage which i load it by pressing the homepage button.
Anyway undoclosetab worked in FF 1.0x and its broken now in 1.5 for me. I hope you will be able to fix it.

Latest 1.5 version 20050817 removes it from R-Click tab line
As I write this it strikes me I may not be describing the problem clearly,
but I think it's the best I can do.
Earlier version (2004) had both the undo Closed tab in the open tabs Web page r-click and r-click on the unused tab line itself. 2 different ways it could be invoked.
New version is invoked only Context Menu (r-Click) of Open web pages. That works OK as long as I have at least 1 web page open. But I cannot invoke it if all tabs have been closed and there is none open. I'm losing some function with the new version.

This is caused by my workaround for the extension-unfriendly <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300412">addBookmarkMenuitems</a>. I'll release an update as soon as I find the time for it.Ronin1973 wrote:After some searching i found that the user_pref("browser.startup.page", 0); in my prefs.js is causing it.
I simply assume that you mean the same as Ronin1973 as otherwise this does make no sense at all.walkerpbus wrote:As I write this it strikes me I may not be describing the problem clearly,

No, it's not the same as Ronin1973, I believe because his message pertains to loading the homepage in prefs.js. I don't have a homepage loading; I load about:blank when I open FF.
I was saying there is a context menu showing Undo Closetab when I r-click on an empty tab line in Version 20041125.5. That function is gone in 20050817. In UndoClosetab 20050817, the r-click DOES show Undo Closetab when I r-click an open web page, but not on the empty tab line.

Old undoclosetab works fine.
I upgraded the install.rdf to 1.5 in undoclosetab-20040617-fx+mz.xpi, and installed it instead of 20050817, and the function works as advertised.
So respectfully, I do not believe it had anything to do with my about:blank homepage. I believe it was some change put into 20050817 and believe I have the experiential proof.

Re: Old undoclosetab works fine.
As already stated four posts above, this was caused by my workaround for the extension-unfriendly addBookmarkMenuitems if browser.startup.page is 0 (and as stated two posts above having about:blank as the homepage has the same effect).walkerpbus wrote:I upgraded the install.rdf to 1.5 in undoclosetab-20040617-fx+mz.xpi, and installed it instead of 20050817, and the function works as advertised.

Without this workaround the tab bar context menu would be mixed up if an item was inserted after the 6th item (which cannot be changed with versions older than 20040910), something you should've noted already unless you use something which also affects the tab bar context menu.
Also note that 20040617 doesn't work as 'advertised' as it will move restored tabs to the far left due to changes in Firefox 1.5...

Hi
First off, thanks Dorando for the very useful extension.
Secondly, Nikos, I've recently upgraded to FF 1.5, and my previously installed enhanced undoclosetab extension was deemed incompatible. Upon attempting to reinstall, I get this error pop-up:
So, you were able to successfully install Turonah's "20041126_enh" while using FF 1.5? Any ideas/tips you or anyone else can give me to resolve the problem?
Many thanks.

Undo Close Tab grayed out
I love this extension.
I upgraded to FF 1.5 yesterday and installed undoclosetab 20051204 today.
I see Undo Close Tab in my context menu, but it is always grayed out.
Please help.
