Just installed this because AdBlock Plus was crashing for me in the latest nightlies and the first thing I noticed is that it uses a lot less memory.

Installed it in 42.0b2 yesterday, used it for awhile and could not access the Menu button when I wanted to quit Firefox.

Re: [Ext] uBlock Origin
i need a special filter and it has to look like this
uBlock understand [a-z] as a regular expression?
the string (between . and !) i need to filter contains numbers and chars - regular content only has numbers.
Code: Select all
||bc0*.rp-online.de/polopoly_fs/*.*.*[a-z]!*

Re: [Ext] uBlock Origin
If uBlock understands regex's, you'll do better to rework your expression anyway. I think the / has to be escaped and .* means anything. .*.* therefore also means anything. If you want the "." you'll need to escape it so "/*.*.*" becomes "\/*\..*\..*". Great stuffBrummelchen wrote:i need a special filter and it has to look like thisCode: Select all

It is compatible with Adblock Plus-filter syntax, which does allow the use of regular expression for network filters -- though the use of regexp is discouraged for performance reasons. The filter you created though is not compatible with ABP filter syntax.
However it's always better to point out the page where there is an issue along with what is the issue, sometimes the solution is elsewhere than where you might think. In the current case, I visited the site rp-online.de, and I am guessing the issue is these ugly ads which appears as a result of using a blocker. If you are willing to install the dev version of uBlock Origin (available on AMO), then these anti-adblock ads can be dealt with more simply with the following filter (it's a new kind of filter):
rp-online.de##script:contains(uabInject)
This will disable the specific inline script tag which is responsible for the self-defacement behavior of the site.

Re: [Ext] uBlock Origin
well, i am more familiar with the normal regex using in other programs, at least i had same problems when used ABP
entry should be
and i really appreciate such option when scrips are allowed by uMatrix, searching within scripts and block it on its content
great job you did, and thanks for investigating
darn, does not work any more while posting this edit
entry should be
||rp-online.de##script:contains(uabInject)

This won't work, domain names in cosmetic filters cannot be prepended with `||`.
