Broken by "Compatibility Update"?
A few days ago I updated my extensions. I do so about once a month. There were maybe 5 or 6 that had updates, didn't really pay much attention to which ones.
Now UnDoCloseTab no longer functions (nor does Duplicate Tab - http://twanno.mozdev.org/) - all each of these extensions do now is generate a blank tag.
This morning I again checked for updates via the "Extensions" tool - and under UnDoCloseTab was a statement that "A Compatibility Patch Has Been Applied to UnDoCloseTab" - unfortunately I did not look at Duplicate Tab to see if it had a similar message, and once I used the button to search for updates the message has not returned.
Any ideas? I really love this extension.....
TIA
Don
EDIT:
Well, looks like it's IE View:

From the IE View FAQ:
How can I disable the Always-View-in-IE list?
This is generally only necessary in unusual circumstances, such as when other extensions are interfering with IE View, causing bookmarks or links to stop working. TabBrowser Extensions is the usual culprit. As of IE View v1.2.2, you can turn off the always-view-in-IE list, which disables the code most likely to run into conflicts.
To completely turn off this feature, you need to manually add a user preference:
1. Load the about:config screen
2. Right click, select New, then Boolean
3. For the name, enter: ieview.disableForce (case sensitive)
4. For the value, select 'true' to disable all the force-in-IE stuff
5. Restart Firefox

...the culprit is IE Tab.....
Sorry - I should have posted up. The issues were due to an updated "IE Tab" extension, NOT IE View (or undoclosetab). Anyone having issues as I was is likely running the "bad" version of IE Tab (which was 1.0.6 IIRC) There's a fixed update now - 1.1.1.1 as of this writing (and seemingly updating every day - rather annoying). See:

Arf, does not work with FF2.0 unfortunately (at least I can't make it work).
Also FF2.0's own Undo close does not work by middle-clicking on the tab bar.
I have to open a contextual menu from the toolbar with right click, navigate to undo and click that. Not very efficient.
I wonder if there is a hidden FF 2.0 switch to modify the middle-click behaviour to work as undoclose on the tab bar?

Wow, that really worked! Thanks dorando, you're the best. Now I am a very happy man.

Anything in the Tools > Error Console (set javascript.options.showInConsole to true in <a href="http://kb.mozillazine.org/index.php?title=about:config&oldid=26276">about:config</a>)
If the Recently Closed Tabs list isn't empty the built-in "Undo Close Tab" functionality is actually handling it (which is the default behavior unless you've disabled nsSessionStore as per the first post).bs7 wrote:(indeed, even going to 'History>Recently Closed Tabs' does the same)
