Blocked items not displayed in sidebar.

Post by ariel »

I think there is some problem with the displaying of blocked items in the sidebar.

When loading this URL: http://www.whonu.com/web_results.php?q=something
And when using this filter: '/[\W\d](motionmall)[\W\d]/' (the only filter)

The frame http://www.motionmall.com/widesky.aspx?d=… and the object http://www.motionmall.com/swf/widesky.swf?d=… (both from motionmall) are blocked but none of them is not displayed in the sidebar.

Even if the object is contained within the frame shouldn’t at least the blocked frame be displayed in the sidebar?

Now, if the sidbar is open while you hit the reload button and you’re observation is keen it is possible to notice a blocked frame (grayed) from motionmall that is added to the list and is immediately removed.

EDIT: I'm using AB+ 0.6.0.4+

A number of other things,
1) Are there any plans to enable a drag+drop of items in the sizebar from the sidebar to the tabbar to display the URL in an individual tab?

2) Some times the URL in the sidebar is so long that even a tool tip as width as the entire screen is not sufficient. Can you consider a horizontal scroll bar to the detached window?

Try middle-clicking on an item in the sidebar.

You are not only one who did notice that.
Mugros and Bazon at Mozillazine did also talk about it.

No. Personally, no. You can change the window height with the mouse cursor for me...
