*** Bug 40180 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** There is also a problem involving &s in urls, which I created a bug for but then couldn't remember the instances in which it was a problem and cancelled. Anyway, running something like: MozillaFirebird "http://www.gentoo.org/index.html&testing&this&problem" When Firebird isn't running causes the script to go south since it can't form the arg array properly with declare -a, and produces a syntax error. This isn't a problem with opening a new window/tab since it defaults to $1. When opening a new Firebird, however, the arg array is used, and since this hasn't been created properly you just get an empty window. I'm working on a way to fix this, but don't hold your breath since I'm not much of a script expert. Oh, just noticed the Thunderbird/Firebird problem has been fixed (but no new ebuild...people might not notice this..) but the & problem still stands.... Created attachment 24827 [details]
Bodgified MozillaFirebird script
Bodged version of script which replaces any ampersands (&) in the arguments/url
before the arguments/url are processed and then puts them back in
Please see if this issue persists in the most recent revisions of the MozillaFirebird launch script. Copy it from /usr/portage/net-www/mozilla-fire{bird,fox}/files/{MozillaFirebird,firefox} into /usr/bin and make sure it's executable. New script tests out ok....however, at the time of testing the firefox script needed a little alteration since it changes from using ffpath to fbpath and this causes problems...Other than that its fine. Good, closing this one down (fbpath also fixed) |
