toolbar icon fails to appear and subsequent crash #1

Closed drevicko closed 11 years ago

drevicko commented 11 years ago

in my browser (ff 18.0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04) the toolbar icon fails to appear.

Unfortunately this causes a crash on line 350 of core.js in autoxport() just after if(this.filenslfile.path.length>0)

the jsconsole reports that document.getElementById("zotero-autoexport-status") is null, hence a null pointer exception happens at line 26 (icon_running()) of toolbar.js

Well I just uploaded a new version for testing regarding the toolbar issue: http://rokdd.de/private/programmierung/zotero-autoexporting/releases/zotero-autoexporting-1-0-8.xpi

Hope that will be solved this problem.. Robert

Thanks for the fix - 1.0.8 no longer crashes, though I still don't have the addon bar icon.

I had a look at the javascript console and nothing seems to appear to indicate the problem. If you can suggest an approach to track down the problem, I'm happy to try. It doesn't really bother me, so I'm happy with it as is.

Hehe

well I am just working at 1.0.9 . 1.0.8 was only a fast bug fix elimaneting some issues that the addon stop working. I already have rewritten installation of toolbar icon and extended my test cases - now it seems to work. If you want a pre-release for testing, I can upload for you (it is even hard to test for me).

However actually the toolbar have no real function else visualising export process and display last export date. Some Functions will come later..

So thanks for your feedback!

I can do a few tests for you if you like (: Did you mean you'd upload to github?

Hi

I released version 1.0.9 officialy yesterday and it will be published my mozilla these days, or you download from my addon homepage http://rokdd.de/permanent:zotero-autoexporting#1-0-9 . However I uploaded a pre version of 1-0-9 some days ago to github, I might do it again . As you might notice the UI have changed and has is now tabbed. That will increase the range of possiblitys handling collections. I thought to list all collections in a list / or like a table and setting up each customly. OR to introduce a new source for export: saved searches. Because the count of filters and wishes is quite endless and saved searches have already a lot of features. If you want to test you are happily invited, but I am no github geek actually :) . If you have any questions concerning the code etc., just write per mail if you like: robert@...de

Well so have fun testing and using 1.0.9 - hopefully stable and with new UI features..

Robert
