| Description |
|
When trying to add a component in the base area, the placeholder link triggers Firefox' own popup blocker unless you've allowed popups from localhost generally. The page editor bars - including the add button from the base area - and their popups work as expected with no problem. The problem is the placeholder link. While it is easy to simply add that exception for popups from localhost (or whatever site this version of magnolia is running on), it might not be so easy to achieve that in some clients' environment where a single user cannot allow these due to company policies. If there is a workaround for making this work in FF without having to add an exception to the rules, it would be most preferable. Tested this also in Safari 5.1.2 and Chrome 16.0.912.77 on Mac OS X and it worked normally. Seems like Firefox is the only troublemaker this time (maybe check IE 9 as well) |

This is fixed in beta6, where we reintroduced the add-Button and removed the onClick function from the placeholder. I leave this open, as we are probably going to add the onclick back. |

This is still the case on the placeholder, after reintroducing click handler. But there is now also the possibility to use the icon. so marking it as "won't fix". |

I'm attaching another screenshot from 4.5.1 and FF 10.0.2. |

I think we should have another look at this nevertheless. I've linked two other issues, which relate to this behavior, which seem to be also caused by how we implemented this click. Is there an alternative, which gets rid of all of them at once? |
