[Solved] Can't get dropdown menus to work on Skinit

Post by x-15a2 » 2015-04-03, 21:58

I can't get dropdown menus to work on Skinit, for example: http://www.skinit.com/designs/sports-co ... distressed

Windows 8.1
PM 25.3.1 x86
Replicated in Safe Mode
Same with Compatibility Mode enabled or disabled.
Did I miss something obvious?

Thanks

I clicked on your link using 64 bit linux Pale Moon 25.3.1 in 64 bit linux Mint 17 and all the drop down menus work for me. I also clicked on "Spider Man" under the Designs heading and those are some nice illustrations of Spider Man. I'm not using FF Compat mode either.

Since I'm using linux Mint 17, maybe someone else will see if they work in Windows 7 since you're using Windows (8.1).

BTW, thanks for providing the link to the site.

Site linked to works perfectly fine (although slow loading) on my system:
Windows 7
PM 25.3.1 x86
Fine in normal mode with FF compat mode off (haven't tried with it on since it's late)

I am not having issues with the drop-down as well.
The site took a little while to load, but that shouldn't deter us from the issue.

Your browser must've gotten corrupted over time, do a clean installation.
Try a new Profile, just incase. I know SafeMode can overrule a lot, but it doesn't hurt to try.

I use this custom button code, with the custom button extension, to get a quick switch for the compat mode :

Code: Select all

const gPref = Services.prefs.getBranch("general.useragent.compatMode.");

var imageOn = "chrome://custombuttons/skin/stdicons/gbutton.png";
var imageOff = "chrome://custombuttons/skin/stdicons/rbutton.png";

if (gPref.getBoolPref("firefox")) this.image = imageOn;
else this.image = imageOff;

this.onclick = function(e) {
  if (e.button == 0) {
    var enable = gPref.getBoolPref("firefox") != true ? true : false;
    gPref.setBoolPref("firefox", enable);
    if (enable) this.image = imageOn;
    else this.image = imageOff;
} }
This way, it's very quick to check with it on & off.

Well jeesh. Nothing like a reboot for a totally different issue to solve the problem. Sorry to bother you all.

I don't mind the extra few seconds it takes to go through options - I hardly ever need to switch it on :P (in fact, I have only switched it on to check reported sites in the past few months, never needed for my normal, widely varied browsing otherwise)
It was just too late to do a more thorough check, is all.
