Thank you moonbat

Glad you like it!

To answer your question - dynamic fixes dynamic javascript links that maybe rewritten after the page has finished loading, while static just runs once when the page is loaded. In practice they function similarly, I'm not sure why the original author made them that way.

My "Pure URL Options" dlg has some strings with a leading space.

.
Looked in C:\Users\~~ (RegEX search) but the only file I could find was the { pure-url@palemoon.xpi }
I assumed an INI file would hold the "options" list

Wanted to check the leading spaces "thing"
Is there any way I can export the list into a text file ?

[Cassette]

The list can be viewed in about:config under extensions.pure-url@palemoon.garbage_fields.

[moonbat]

That's what the remove function is for, so you can correct what was inadvertently added.

As I supected ... all but the final 3 strings have a leading space

Code: Select all

__tn__, _openstat, action_object_map, action_ref_map, action_type_map, amp, cid, ei@google.com, fb_action_ids, fb_action_types, fb_ref, fb_source, fbclid@facebook.com, feature@youtube.com, fref@facebook.com, from, ga_campaign, ga_content, ga_medium, ga_place, ga_source, ga_term, gs_l, hc_location@facebook.com, igshid, pfmredir, ref, ref@facebook.com, ref_@imdb.com, sdsrc, src@addons.mozilla.org, trk, utm_campaign, utm_content, utm_medium, utm_place, utm_reader, utm_term, ved, yclid,hash,utm_source,var

I did not add for memory ...

,hash,utm_source,var

...
so what is the correct syntax ? ... with or without the leading space ... OR... does Pure URL Trim the strings ... irrespectively ?
My understanding is the list is comma delimited NOT comma & space delimited ... ie,
Chr(44) ... (or U+002C)

Chr(44) & Chr(32) ... (or U+002C & U+0020)

In the garbage fields preference, they're just comma delimited, you don't have to add any spaces, and the default preference string in the extension code doesn't use any spaces either. If you're using a text editor that auto-formats strings to have a leading space, that could be the problem.
If you have added any new fields over and above the defaults, copy the preference value from about:config to a text editor, reset the preference, then add them back manually using the Pure URL options dialog.

These three strings seem strange. Or is it OK?

[moonbat]

They're ok..had added them after seeing them in use on some site.

@ moonbat
Resolved the "space" character in the dlg list.
Checked the ...

Code: Select all

extensions.pure-url@palemoon.garbage_fields

... value and sure enough the list was almost all Comma & Space delimited
Easilly fixed with my preferred text editor Metapad 360 ...

New problem !

Added "_m" string (without the quotes of course) using the dlg. ... but it is not on the dlg NOR in the about:config item "value"
Where might it be hiding OR does PM need to be restarted ?.

I have too many instances + tabs open at the moment on a complex project to restart without loosing "stuff"

My settings on the GUI ... in case I am missing something

Love the extension. It did not auto-update for me on MX Linux, although auto updates was checked in add-ons manager. I've subscribed to this thread so I don't miss any releases. Keep up the fantastic work.

Thanks
Auto updates aren't immediate - the browser periodically checks the addon site for updates, but you can manually trigger a check from the addons page.

hello

can somebody give the settings to remove al the tracking from amazon and chinese websites, such as aliexpress, banggood and so on >?

[moonbat]

The default list already has a couple of entries for Amazon. If you want to remove tracking, what you do is first copy the URL in question and remove a few parameters, then try opening it and see if it opens properly. Or the names of the parameters could give you a clue. If the page loads properly without that parameter, chances are it isn't necessary.

Changelog for 2.3.6

• Errors in URL processing are now properly logged with Javascript exception, independent of whether logging is turned on.
• Removed problematic garbage field 'from', it was causing problems with xe.com.
• Minor fixes.

Thanks moonbat. The icon still has the grey background.

[moonbat]

It displays with a transparent image and no difference on a fresh profile, other than removing the !important CSS attribute I dunno what else to try.

[back2themoon]

Ok. It's strange because you had it fixed a few versions back and issue reappeared on v.2.3 (I think). This seems to happen on Windows and Status Bar only.
