archive.org - no authomatic link menus

[ltcomdata]

Hello:

In archive.org, the following behaviour is displayed in a Chrome-like browser.
1) After performing a search, and
2) Obtaining a list of results,
3) Upon hovering on the title link for a result...
4) An information window about that result is authomagically displayed. This information window is full of links that can be followed, or which can be right-clicked to get a context menu full of commands one may use on them.

In Pale Moon, (4) does not happen after doing (3). And there does not seem to be any reason for it. Upon loading an archive.org page, all I get is the following warning:

Code: Select all

Timestamp: 11/15/2025 1:39:15 PM
Warning: Content Security Policy: Couldn’t parse invalid host 'wasm-unsafe-eval'

Do we know why this happens? Is it another case of archive.org not following standard html? Or does the Chrome feature rely a technology that can be used for spying on the user, and which is therefore not implemented on Pale Moon?


FURTHERMORE: when one right-clicks on the title links of the results, there are some options missing from the Pale Moon context menu that shows up. In fact, the context menu that shows up is the same one that shows up when the page background is clicked: it is as if Pale Moon did not recognize that the title links are actual links --- even though it underlines them like all other links.

Can you view or download what you want to see? If so, that stuff you're pointing out is fairly minor. There are lots of things all over the web that don't work quite right because site coders are mostly only concerned with Chrome compatibility. This shouldn't be news to anyone. Small independent browser developers can't keep pace with the google changes, and sometimes they or their users don't want all the new stuff anyway.
