Subject: [Maf] [ANN] MAF 0.8.0 for Firefox 3 released
Message-ID: <492D31B6.2070301@amadzone.org>
Hello,
version 0.8.0 of the Mozilla Archive Format extension is now available
for download at the offical site .
MAF 0.8.0 has the following user-visible improvements over MAF 0.6.3:
* Compatibility with Firefox 3 on all operating systems.
* Clean installation and uninstallation.
* Redesigned preferences user interface.
* Temporary files are now created in the system's temporary folder
by default.
* Creating file associations on Windows works again.
* Stabilized file extension and type handling:
o Handle only the |maff| extension, and not its variations,
since double extensions cannot be handled correctly
by Firefox.
o Removed support for the old |maf| and |maff.zip|
extensions.
o Added support for |mhtml| file extension for MHTML
archives.
o MAF does not register applications for its MIME types
anymore.
* Removed features:
o maf: protocol (use jar: instead).
o |document.write| override.
* Bugfixes:
o Opening archives from the command-line or by double-clicking
a file when no browser windows are visible now works
reliably.
o Now the save functions always overwrite the contents of
existing archives, rather than appending.
o Copying archive metadata to the clipboard works again.
If you have any question or comment, please write to the MAF mailing
list.

Paolo Amadini

Subject: [Maf] MAF 0.8.0 conflict with GetRight
Message-ID: <000601c9509e$ab5fffe0$021fffa0$@de>
Hi,
I just went from 0.7.1u to 0.8.0, but when I now doubleclick a maff-file
GetRight intervenes and says it only supports HTTP and FTP protocols, and
the file doesn't open in Firefox (version 3.0.4). I really wonder why
GetRight now tries to come into place. Getright is configured to monitor
browser operations, but maff isn't on the list of file extensions GetRight
should act upon.
Perhaps GetRight isn't the culprit, but FlashGot. I looked through its
configuration, but couldn't yet find an option that might lead to this
strange behaviour.
Any help highly appreciated.

Thank you for reporting this problem. It seems that the issue is related
to upgrading from any previous version of MAF to version 0.8.0, and
may happen when opening MAFF files even using the file menu.
Since the issue will probably affect all the existing MAF users, I made
a new minor release immediately. The release is still invisible from the
website, please try and get it from the following address:
http://downloads.mozdev.org/maf/maf-0.8.2-fx.xpi
Let me know if this solves your problem.
Regards,
Paolo

0.8.2 works again (like 0.7.1u)! Thanks.
Still there remains one minor bug(?) that I'm faced to since the very
beginning with MAF (early 0.6 releases): When doubleclicking maf-files they
open in TWO tabs in Firefox, one tab with the maf-file and a second empty
tab. This might as well be a conflict with an Firefox Add-on (e.g. Tab Mix
Plus I use now).
Best regards

Thanks to you; I'll send the official announcement for 0.8.2 shortly.

This is a known bug; it doesn't impact functionality, although it is
obviously the first thing being noticed when using the extension.
I will address it in a future release.

Hi,
Just to add one remark: I noticed that after installing MAF 0.8.2 those
add-ons I forced to get installed (bypassing the compatibility check) were
disabled. In addition, under Tools | Themes the Default Theme entry was
doubled (new entry named 'undefined undefined'). This entry doesn't show up
under Add-Ons | Themes, by the way. Both effects arise independent of MAF
0.8.2 being upgraded from 0.7.1u and after deinstalling the old version and
doing a fresh install.
Regards
Eckhardt

Thanks for your good working. When I save a page, you know ,sometimes It can't be saved because the page wasn't loading completely! But maf 0.8.0 don't tell us whether a page was saved completely, you know, version 0.7.0u will give a message ! So, can I ask why you disable that tip!

Subject: [Maf] MAF 0.8.2 install problems
Message-ID: <000001c952cc$e68ebd10$b3ac3730$@de>
So far, I noticed three problems when installing (or upgrading) MAF 0.8.2 on
Firefox 3.0.x:
1. Add-ons which do not pass the compatibility test will be deactivated. You
can avoid this if you check the box to bypass this test when installing MAF
0.8.2 (Obviously, Firefox tests compatibility of all Add-ons, not only that
one which is going to be installed).
2. The menu under Tools where you can switch between themes gets a new entry
'undefined undefined' which when being selected will bring up the Default
Theme. There is still the entry 'Default' in this menu if you haven't
removed it by yourself. The entry 'undefined undefined' isn't listed under
Tools | Add-ons | Themes, so you can't get rid of it that way.
3. The searchbar collapses to its smallest possible width (to give space for
just one letter). The width can't be adjusted with Searchbar Autosizer
(version 1.4.1). When MAF 0.8.2 is being deactivated or deinstalled, the
searchbar resizes according to the settings made in Searchbar Autosizer.
Due to the last item I went back to MAF 0.7.1u for the moment.
Best regards
