Clicking on abp: links doesn't work in SeaMonkey

Description (last modified by greiner)

[see http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=2932139 ]

Environment

Adblock Plus 2.6.9.3933
SeaMonkey 2.33.1

How to reproduce

new profile

1) Install Adblock Plus
2) Restart SeaMonkey
3) Navigate to https://adblockplus.org/en/features#socialmedia
4) Click "open this dialogue"

Observed behaviour

Got a message from the browser saying that the abp: protocol isn't recognized.
This is apparently because Adblock Plus does not call window.getBrowser() to retrieve browser in SeaMonkey.

With the modification suggested in http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?p=14141987#p14141987 , this appears to work as expected.

Expected behaviour

Adblock Plus should have offered to add Fanboy's Social Blocking List subscription.

What to change

In lib/appSupport.js the SeaMonkey-specific getBrowser method should call and return the value of window.getBrowser() if window.gBrowser is null.

  • Resolution set to rejected
  • Status changed from new to closed

Mass-closing all bugs in Adblock Plus for Firefox module, the codebase of Adblock Plus 3.0 belongs into Platform and User-Interface modules. Old bugs are unlikely to still apply.
