Issue with Html validator addon

Unread post by adriantxu » 2012-01-13, 16:25

Hi

I installed the x64 version of pale moon on a Windows 7 Ultimate x64.

I'm a web developer so I'm in the need to use some specific addons such as html validator for my work.

However when I start pale moon it throws an error for this addon saying: "FATAL ERROR : The dynamic C library contained in the extension file could not be found.". I have tried with a 32 bits version and everything is OK, so it seems the problem is on the x64 version.

Anyone know how to solve this problema??


Thanks

It looks like that add-on links specifically to the C run-time library, meaning it is an extension that has (32-bit) binary components. As a result, it will not work in a 64-bit browser, and the add-on developer will have to release a 64-bit version of it for it to work in Pale Moon x64.

Your only solution for the time being is to use the 32-bit version of Pale Moon until the add-on developer has released a 64-bit compatible version of the add-on.
