Furl (toolbar/furltools) & Firefox 1.5+
I was pleased to hear that Firefox 1.5 will be released today, however I noticed that furltools wasn’t working with it..
Delving into the code it seems that since recent builds of Firefox 1.5 force xpcnativewrappers=yes by default, so furl ceased to work properly in its current incarnation..
I’ve added a chrome.manifest to disable xpcnativewrappers which lets furl function as per normal with its existing code
The modified furl extension is available here:
furl 0.61
I emailed the furl devs beforehand regarding a new version of furltools but haven’t recieved a response yet (because it was only a few hours ago!)
Hopefully this will fill the void for fellow furl addicts until an official version is released for Firefox 1.5
