Cancel request altogether

[pnewell]

Any ideas, suggestions or other feedback I am using finicky in a couple of unique ways and there are certain scenarios where links are automatically "opened" by the system, but they may not have sufficient information to be a fully valid link/url. I am able to detect that scenario with javascript, but so far I haven't scene any way to cancel a click altogether, if I return an empty string it reverts to the original opener.

Is there any way to just ask finicky to stop execution?

It's been a while but I think you can return null or possibly undefined and the request won't be fulfilled.

Thanks, that worked!

In case anyone needs to do this in the future, you need to set the browser in one of the handlers to null:

  handlers: [
    {
      match: ["apple.com/*", "example.org/*"],
      browser: null
    }
  ]
