Sub-menu missing #387

Open kiwidude opened 11 years ago

When hovering over or clicking on the red flag, a popup lists all the currently relevant domains to which the active tab's page is making requests. From there, sub-menus are used to change the allow/forbid request setting. As per attached screenshot, the submenus aren't always there.

This possibly has to do with the use of noscript, and temporarily allowing scripts from some domain and then removing that permission again in noscript. The problem looks like it has to do with the domains-list shown by requestpolicy not being updated correctly. Please be EXTREMELY careful with making sure relevant domains are shown - this includes the ones not currently active because they're blocked by noscript. noscript has serious issues with not displaying domains it really needs to - so far, this has been much less of a problem with requestpolicy for me - please keep it that way or this kind of plugin becomes unusable on some sites.
