Rebuilding TBE's featureset with other plugins

yea- ignore the settings. i gutted sessionsaver to make this quickly.

is popup-blocking enabled by default for Firefox / the latest Seamonkey?

I get the same error. I also had an installation issue. DLed installer XPI, installed, restarted FF, and got an extra frame below the status bar with some more sessionsaver chrome code (sorry, didn't copy). After disabling session-saver and reinstalling SS and Window-Q, every worked. Madonna's site passes the single-window mode test. Cool!

TBE can now officially kiss my grits.

I have no idea about Firefox's default, I installed with my old profile (I'm testing this thing, so I should try to break it, right?

).

I found a site where it doesn't work, but it's private and I can't give the URL or post any of the source

From the source it's using a get-method form to call a php search script directed to a named target window. The result is a completely new browser. TBE successfully directed it to a new tab when I was using it.

Btw, make sure the page finishes loading before clicking anything. I'm working on trapping sooner, but right now, the appropriate changes only occur when pageload completes.

well at the moment I am using tabbrowser preferences, miniz and session saver for my tabs which almost works perfect, except a few pages will open a new window when clicking on links, here is an example.

http://www.cpanel.net/

click on the cpanel demo and see if it loads a new window or tab. I get a window

WindowQ opens a new window for the cpanel demo too. TBE opens it in a new tab.

<a href="http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=47192&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=105#375839">Window-Q</a> traps script-generated windows.
.
The preview only activates after pageload completes, so you need popups disabled to use it effectively. It's still in development.

isnt it doing same job as tabbroswer preferences if not whatys the difference?

Window-Q seems to be a superior replacement for TBP.

I believe so. (Not sure about Seamonkey though)

Anything new happening with this?

Is there any extension to move the tab bar to the bottom? And to provide tab bar functions (like, midclick on tab bar opens a new tab)

simulate:
TBE has.. uh, a lot of options. This thread is about replicating the ones people need.

You probably meant to start that post: "Could someone make... [?]"

not needed, here's the css for moving tabs at the bottom:

Code: Select all

/* Tabs at bottom */
#content > tabbox { -moz-box-direction: reverse; }
