Pop-up blocking and bookmarklets in Chimera. At the same time.

Pop-up blocking and bookmarklets in Chimera. At the same time.

While reading through the aptly titled Bug 155351 on Bugzilla I learned that you can make bookmarklets work in Chimera without disabling pop-up blocking.

Simply edit you prefs.js in your Chimera profile folder and change the line that reads:
user_pref("dom.disable_open_click_delay", 1000);
To read:
user_pref("dom.disable_open_click_delay", 0);
Of course. Don’t know why I didn’t think of that.

Bookmarklets working, I wanted to make sure pop-up blocking still worked. So I dusted off IE in search of evil pop-up pages. So I typed in the first thing that came to mind. http://popupad.com/. Sure enough there is a page there with pop-up ads. It bothers me to know that someone thought that would be a good idea.

Anyway, it all works. And this post was brought to you by a Movabletype Bookmarklet that I haven’t used in a very very long time.
