Re: Draging Links to Appear in Foreground
information wrote:Update:
I see, dragging up does put the link in a new tab, dragging down does not. Cool.
Strange that I get this behavior whether or not the checkbox to open links in the foreground is checked or not. I guess that feature is meant to override the above mentioned feature of dragging up or down and is just not working.

For some reason, I had it working, and now it doesn't. I normally use my middle mouse button to open a new tab, but when I'm not at my desk with my laptop, and I'm using the touchpad, I really would like to use this feature. I did a update, and maybe that is when it stopped working.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.9) Gecko/20050711 Firefox/1.0.5
If anyone has any ideas on how to get it up and running again, I would be delighted!!!

That flurry and excitement can get you into a lot worse trouble.
This is an important extension but I believe there are others that do the same thing. I can't remember the names offhand, perhaps someone else will jump in.
Good Luck Annie!

Thank you for providing such a convenient extension. However, it is pointted by Piro (*1), the author of TBE, that this extension reproduces bug 285438--Drag and drop gestures can be hijacked to load priviliged xul--.
Bug 285438 was fixed in Firefox 1.0.2 and Mozilla 1.7.6. But with this extension, even Firefox 1.0.4 can be hijacked by drag and drop gestures.
The following code is an easy patch for SuperDragAndGo-0.2.4d1.xpi. It only works with Firefox 1.0.2 (and Mozilla 1.7.6?) or later. (I removed some whitespaces from the following code.)Code: Select all

note: if searchbar is set to <b>"find in this page"</b>, it will search with the default google.
Could you please add an option to make google the default search engine regardless of what's selected in the search bar? regis posted a hacked version on page 8 which would have done this, but it's no longer available for download.

When I read anything long in a website I tend to highlight it, and sometimes I accidently drag the highlighted bit, now if I let go it will open a NEW TAB and search for it. Unless I press ESC which then cancels it. Will it be possible if you could add in the next version so to cancel it you can also LEFT CLICK it will cancel it.

.xpi's are just .zip files hidden under another extension. Open the .xpi with winrar, extract the file you want to edit. After editing, drop it back in winrar to update the .xpi.
