Chrome failing to open blob in new window/tab #71

Open evitolins opened 7 years ago

evitolins commented 7 years ago

It seems a recent release of Chrome (Version 56.0.2924.87 (64-bit)) is blocking the ability to open a new window with the blob.

window.open(URL.createObjectURL(blob));

This doesn't seem to be gif.js specific, but probably good to explore other options, or at least note it in the documentation.

Were u able to solve this?

try to convert the Blob object to base64 : )

You can create a link with document.createElement("a"), setAttribute("target", "_blank") and call click() on it during a gesture event like another click (but it can be on a button for instance). You can setAttribute("download", "animation.gif") to suggest a filename, or just setAttribute("download", "") to mark it as a download.

If you're using AdBlock, it can close tab with blob url ;(
