Extension updated to cover user feedback (more flexible URL parsing).

Can you please provide a testcase?

Comment 5

[Neil Bird]

You mean an example use?

This should cover both browser & email: www.mozilla.org

Select the above URL text, then 'Open Selected URL [in New Tab]' off the context
menu,  which should be present when viewing this bug in the browser, and also
the email report containing this text.

Also: mozilla

.. then 'Open Selection/With www.*.org'

Where do these errors come from?  I've not seen them under Win32 or Linux
installations of any version of my plugin?

They come from UMO when I go to upload your extension.

Comment 9

Hmm.  I'm guessing that it's being a tad over-zealous on what version no.s may
be updated, plus it's confusing the SeaMonkey tag with Thunderbird.  I've
stripped it back down to just 0.9/1.0 for both of Firefox and Thunderbird now.

The seamonkey information was fine.  I need you to remove the Sunbird section
completely.  Apparently UMO is too dumb to notice that the App GUID is
different.  We've fixed that bug in CVS, but it isn't live yet.

The evil bugspam monkeys have attacked again, updating the QA Contact for all Add-ons :: Add-ons bugs (renamed from Listings). Please ignore and go back to work at your cubicle.
