This also makes middle-click work with the back/forward menuitems in the context-menu. I set it to always ignore Alt just like bug263942, so with this patch it is not possible anymore to save a page by Alt-clicking the back/forward buttons.

I'm now using BackOrBackDuplicate and ForwardOrForwardDuplicate for the new command elements but I'm not sure if that's a good name.

For some reason the "back-forward-dropmarker" won't work in this patch, I've tried replacing Browser:Forward with Browser:ForwardOrForwardDuplicate in the code beneath but that didn't change anything.
>var backForwardDropmarker = document.getElementById("back-forward-dropmarker");
>if (backForwardDropmarker)
> backForwardDropmarker.disabled =
> document.getElementById('Browser:Back').hasAttribute('disabled') &&
> document.getElementById('Browser:Forward').hasAttribute('disabled');
I was under the impression that because of: "<observes element="Browser:Forward" attribute="disabled"/>", the Browser:Forward command and the Browser:ForwardOrForwardDuplicate command "inherit" the disabled attribute from each other as soon as it changes. But apparently the disabled attribute from Browser:Forward doesn't change when the one from Browser:ForwardOrForwardDuplicate changes.

That's because removing the <observes> elements makes the unified-back-forward-button's onbroadcast attribute ineffective.

(In reply to comment #14) > That's because removing the <observes> elements makes the > unified-back-forward-button's onbroadcast attribute ineffective. But <observes> is still in the Browser:ForwardOrForwardDuplicate <command>, so I thought the forward-button should "get" <observes> because it uses command="Browser:ForwardOrForwardDuplicate". If this is not the case, then should I just put the observes elements back in the back/forward-buttons?
Comment 16•16 years ago

forward-button gets the disabled attribute according to the associated command automatically. There's no extra <observes> element for this in the DOM tree; and the broadcast event is only dispatched for such elements. One possible but unappealing solution is to handle the dropmarker explicitly wherever Browser:Back and Browser:Forward are enabled or disabled.

Is it a good idea to add a BackForwardDisabled <broadcaster> element to browser-sets.inc which gets disabled=true as soon as both the forward and backward commands are disabled? This could then be referenced by the dropmarker button.

With pure markup? Not sure how that would work.

I've added a <broadcaster> which gets disabled="true" as soon as both back and forward are disabled, I then just had to add <observes element="backForwardDisabled" attribute="disabled"/> to the back-forward-dropmarker. One problem with this poatch is that: > + if (backForwardDisabled == aWebNavigation.canGoBack || > aWebNavigation.canGoForward) { didn't work very well so I had to use: > + if (aWebNavigation.canGoBack || aWebNavigation.canGoForward) > + var canGoBackOrForward = true; > + else > + var canGoBackOrForward = false; > + if (backForwardDisabled == canGoBackOrForward) { Also I think with this patch this code in function BrowserToolboxCustomizeDone() isn't needed anymore: >var backForwardDropmarker = document.getElementById("back-forward-dropmarker"); >if (backForwardDropmarker) > backForwardDropmarker.disabled = > document.getElementById('Browser:Back').hasAttribute('disabled') && > document.getElementById('Browser:Forward').hasAttribute('disabled'); I'm not sure all this is wat you meant by comment #16, but this at least solves the problems with the back-forward-dropmarker.

If you can't remove this, the broadcaster isn't useful with the dropmarker as the only observer, since you could just disable the dropmarker elsewhere directly. Also need to take a look at gSessionHistoryObserver.

With this patch applied, when removing the back/forward-buttons with "customize" and then putting it back the buttons aren't synchronized with the back/forward commands, this is because of bug 309953. I've worked around this by adding this to function BrowserToolboxCustomizeDone(): > +//bug 440702: the back and forward buttons also suffer from bug 309953. > +var backButton = document.getElementById("back-button"); > +if (backButton) { > + backButton.disabled = > + document.getElementById("Browser:Back").getAttribute("disabled") == > "true"; > +} > +var forwardButton = document.getElementById("forward-button"); > +if (forwardButton) { > + forwardButton.disabled = > + document.getElementById("Browser:Forward").getAttribute("disabled") == > "true"; > +}

In this patch I've added the brackets here: > if (backForwardDisabled == (aWebNavigation.canGoBack || aWebNavigation.canGoForward)) { This code is removed from BrowserToolboxCustomizeDone() because I couldn't find any problems with removing it: >var backForwardDropmarker = document.getElementById("back-forward-dropmarker"); >if (backForwardDropmarker) > backForwardDropmarker.disabled = > document.getElementById('Browser:Back').hasAttribute('disabled') && > document.getElementById('Browser:Forward').hasAttribute('disabled'); And it also adds the workaround to BrowserToolboxCustomizeDone() described in comment #22.

The original purpose of this bug was to simplify the code, right? (Since centralized commands are easier to maintain than widespread oncommand attributes.)
I'm afraid the current patch adds more complexity than it removes.
I think you should at least remove the broadcaster and use this instead:
> <toolbarbutton id="back-forward-dropmarker" ...
> onbroadcast="this.disabled =
> document.getElementById('Browser:Back').disabled &&
> document.getElementById('Browser:Forward').disabled;">
> ..
> <observes element="Browser:Back" attribute="disabled"/>
> <observes element="Browser:Forward" attribute="disabled"/>
> </toolbarbutton>

This patch doesn't use the broadcaster anymore, I've replaced it with what you said in comment #26. And about moving the brackets from functions to the function heads, shouldn't there be a bug about moving all those brackets in .js files?

It seems like this code needs to be but back with this approach: >var backForwardDropmarker = document.getElementById("back-forward-dropmarker"); >if (backForwardDropmarker) > backForwardDropmarker.disabled = > document.getElementById('Browser:Back').hasAttribute('disabled') && > document.getElementById('Browser:Forward').hasAttribute('disabled'); Besides putting the above code back, this patch removes the "save" case you mention in comment #28.

BrowserGoHome() has a bug when you ctrl- or middle-click click it, it doesn't make any difference if shift is pressed or not. It should open the homepage in background when shift is pressed (and the pref is set to default), but instead the new tab is selected. This is because of this code: > // openUILinkIn in utilityOverlay.js doesn't handle loading multiple pages > switch (where) { > case "current": > loadOneOrMoreURIs(homePage); > break; > case "tabshifted": > case "tab": > urls = homePage.split("|"); > var loadInBackground = >getBoolPref("browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground", false); > gBrowser.loadTabs(urls, loadInBackground); > break; > case "window": > OpenBrowserWindow(); > break; > } This problem can be fixed by replacing the above code with this: > // openUILinkIn in utilityOverlay.js doesn't handle loading multiple pages > var loadInBackground = getBoolPref("browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground", >false); > switch (where) { > case "current": > loadOneOrMoreURIs(homePage); > break; > case "tabshifted": > loadInBackground = !loadInBackground; > // fall through > case "tab": > urls = homePage.split("|"); > gBrowser.loadTabs(urls, loadInBackground); > break; > case "window": > OpenBrowserWindow(); > break; > } Should I file a new bug for this problem or fix it within this bug?

Seems like an unrelated bug (if it's not intentional). The more changes you mix into this bug, the sooner you'll get the ui-review denied ;)

Comment on attachment 327326 [details] [diff] [review] patch v12 - Put dropmarker code for customize back I might regret this later, but after wrestling with it I don't think there's a lot of cost to adding this option. It's pretty irregular for a context menu to react to a middle click, which means that it's not going to be discoverable, but also means that we're not going to break any other expectation of the functionality. If we do this, Ctrl/Cmd + click on these actions should also open new tabs.
