Sorry, have to learn reading better. Jsnj noted the bmp-menu 'bug' (disabled in the new build because of misalignment). But other point still unclear to me...

Clicking on a mp(e)g-link just starts downloading, no prompt, where to save the file (it will be saved in the users temp folder!) and the file will be opened after the download has finished. Looks like I'm not happy with this change... ;-/ BTW: Doesn't happen with wmv-files.

When using the layer-close button with the right-mouse-button in the default and phoenix-themes I get a pop-down menu with 6 options.
The last three options are focus-options.
When using my own skin, they are gone but I can't find the difference in all pref-files as toolbars.cfg etc..

Check your toolbars file, make sure the CloseButton menu is referenced:

Close{
%ifplugin macros
macros(Close)|CloseButton

This must be because of the mimeTypes file, but it hasn't changed since the first beta. It's based on the one from the W build since we can't get a decent mimeType handler to work with the betas. Most users complained during 0.8.2 that files didn't automatically open, so most media files are opened automatically with that default mimeTypes file. I'll check on the wmv problem.

Thanks jsnj ;-))

Yeah, you caught me surfing only occasionally with .9beta. *g*

Oh my... I hate it if a browser starts downloading 'things', saving them 'somewhere' and loading programs to launch those things without prompting me! I want to save files that can't be opened within the browser 95% of the time (first). There are security aspects as well.

But well, maybe other users want it that way...

For me it is the way I expect K-M to behave, so it's no problem. :-)

But I agree that it is better to have a consistent experience.

Agreed on both. I can still use Save Link As.

Of course, ideally, we should have a dialog box asking what to do. Is it in BTS yet?

Not always. There are sites that are very strict in referer checking.

Yeah, that would be really nice.

Dunno?

I found two little bugs in the toolbar. The button for the pop-up blocker has only one image (the version 0.82 had an image for the active pop-up blocker and an image for the inactive pop-up blocker, 0.9b has only the image for the inactive pop-up blocker).
The second problem is the search button. The button don't work here. Ctrl+G works, also when I go over the menu.
Another thing is that Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V and Ctrl+X are not activated. I had to do that by hand in the accelerators menu.

Just for the look, would it possible to put the search button back to the main toolbar?

The homepage button also don't work here in version 0.9b, sorry forget that in my post before.

Martin,

which beta are you using and did you install in an empty directory?

I like the new beta! Still as fast as the 0.82 but far more comfortable to use. But there is a problem that was already there in earlier versions:

If I open a new window and press F11 to make it fullscreen, then close it with Alt+F4, K-Meleon will open every new link from the first window in fullscreen mode.

But nevertheless, great work, guys! Can't wait until 0.9 release!!

Of course, ideally, we should have a dialog box asking what to do. Is it in BTS yet?

I don't think so, but Ulf & Andrew know about it, and when we were trying to get the XUL mimeType handler to work in the betas it was posted in the dev list. But it's a good idea to formally file an RFE.

Couple questions: Which skin are you using? Also did you try & import your 0.8.2 cfg files into the beta build? If so, that may be where the problem is.

This would suggest that you're using the first beta which had issues with some files in the res folder. Should be fixed in the latest available beta.

I'm using beta2 with the standard skin.
I had my profile left in the K-Meleon directory, the rest of the folder was empty when I installed the the new version.

I installed K-Meleon now new in an empty folder and then I copied my bookmark file in the new profile folder.
Now all buttons are working, but I had to activate Ctr+C, +V, +X again by hand.

Please install in a new or completely empty directory. There sadly will be such problems if you use an old profile.

but I had to activate Ctr+C, +V, +X again by hand.

Hmm...what OS are you using? I'm on Win2k SP4 and can't reproduce.

Is anyone else having problems with those accelerators at default with beta 2? If so, please report what OS you may be using, just in case it matters.

I'm using Win2k with SP4, too.

I don't what happend a few minutes ago, but I never had such a behaviour by K-Meleon. Maybe someone has an idea.
I was browsing with two open K-Meleon windows, suddenly K-Meleon didn't load any images from the sites. I closed all windows, started K-Meleon again, but still no images. Then I take a look in the option and there was under privacy "Do not laod images" activated. I use "Accept all images". I don't know how the options where changed during browsing, all I know, that I didn't change that.

And here I thought I had done something wrong. I had the exact same experience. Suddenly the default setting was "Do not load images" and I had to change it back manually.

Might have something to do with the accelerator, F7. Did either of you click it for some reason? Maybe in an attempt to get to the URL Bar w/F6? Perhaps I shouldn't assign those as default accelerators for popups F8 & images F7.

I used F5 to reload the website, but not F6 or F7.

Is this now a clean setup? Without any files (including your old profile) from prior km-versions?

This is a new install in an empty folder.

jsnj,

<<Might have something to do with the accelerator, F7. >>

Didn't hit any function keys. Just browsing and using the normal back and forward buttons and clicking on layer URLs. And this is that clean install I did after I mucked up the cache settings with changes.
