Firefox and TBE + My Assistant

[Joel]

So I used to be able to open My Assistant in its own window, along with other smaller picture windows that other sites use. Now it will only open in a new tab. My TBE are set to open a new window if it is a javascript request. This always worked before, what do I change?

it's working fine for me. did you do a clean installation of firefox? have you checked about:config?

Clean install, yes. What part of about:config would I have to change that TBE wouldn't do for me? Remember, this used to work until Firefox.

hmm, i just took a look, but i couldn't find any options for javascript. have you tried re-installing firefox and the extension? it should take about a minute to do that.

I don't use it, too problematic.

[Joel]

Grrr, Tab Browser Prefs don't give enough options yet. :(

[Joel]

OK, using them now. Let's see if I can live with them.

Quote from Mozillazine forum FAFQ (frequently asked firefox questions)

Q: How can I make all links open in new tabs instead of new windows?

A: Use the Tabbrowser Preferences extension.

Use of Tabbrowser Extensions (TBE) is not recommended by Firefox developers.

I know they're ok, there was something specific that stopped me from using the Prefs and I can't remember what it was. :s

So does it open My assistant like it should with Prefs? I use TBE and have the same problem..

[Joel]

Yes, no problem now with that. I've yet to try another site, though.

:( well both sites that I know of are down.. where did you get it from?

[Joel]

edit:

use this one.

Thanks, got it running :)

not really any options with it.. now I need a few others to enable what TBE could do..

hopefully they will update TBE soon. what is going on with it? did the dev team get rid of it for good?
