This site has their login page in a frame. ALT-` used to work with frames, but it appears that I removed that code. I'll put it back in.
Ahh... ok, that explains it... hopefully there wasn't a good reason you removed it in the first place...
I noticed that if you press Alt+` TWICE in the password field (yahoo mail), then the PasswordMaker dialog finally pops. One pressing has no effect.
I can't reproduce this. Do you mean Ctrl-`?
I'm not sure what f is talking about here... the planet-save.com site is the first time I've encountered one where ALT-` didn't work - Yahoo has always worked for me, and still does... but the PM window opens right up for me, so not sure where this other problem is coming from...
. Edit PasswordMaker settings to match your old settings (Ctrl+` fails too,
f - above you said Ctrl, but later you said Alt... are you sure we're talking about the same keys? You had asked me whether I was using the 'keycode' instead of the 'ascii' code - but I'm not sure I understand why you're asking me that - I am simply hitting the key combination (the ALT key and the ' key (ascii code 96)) on my keyboard. By the way, just to be sure - the ' key is ascii code 96, NOT code 39 - and that is the key I'm pressing.
Hmmm... I just thought of and tried one last thing, and was actually able to reproduce (once) what you described (having to hit the keys twice in succession before the dialog came up)... you're not by any chance hitting THREE keys are you? When I tried hitting the [ALT], the [-], and the [`] keys all three at the same time, I noticed what you described, but it wasn't consistent...
Last dumb question, but maybe the ALT key you are using is bad? Did you try the other one?
Also - do you remember what version of PM you staretd with (the first version you installed)?
Strange bug, guys. If you simply upgrade or unistall/reinstall without editing the profile, it fails.
I'm not convinced this is a bug... I have been using PM since 0.51, and I have never had to edit anything in my profile - although, that said, out of habit, I *always* uninstall something before installing a new version - it just seems cleaner to me - so, I guess it is possible it is a bug related to installing a new version on top of an older one...
Eric? At least we know the version he started having problems with (0.82). Maybe tomorrow I can play with this and see if I can reproduce it - if I do, I'll post the steps for you...
Anyway, f, as for the ALT-` problem, it sounds to me like you may either have a bad key, or maybe another extension that is conflicting... any chance you could post your list of installed extensions?
Otherwise, I'm out of ideas. The only reason I'm trying so hard on this is I don't like the idea of a bug in this, my favorite and oh-so-critical program... :police:
