This issue is resolved in BookMacster 1.5.8 which has just been released to production.

My prediction of doom was correct.  Two days later, we finally got it working.  Will publish a BookMacster udpate later today, after tests are complete.

Well, the good news is that our extensions for Firefox 5, Firefox 6 and Firefox 7 (which is all the Mozilla has available now) built with no errors or warnings.  The bad news is that when things start out that good in this business, it usually means you're headed for a major disaster  Cheesy.  Will quit for today, before something bad happens.

Unfortunately, Mozilla requires that extensions using XPCOM components be rebuilt for each Firefox version, and the latest BookMacster only supports Firefox 3.6-4.  Also, they had a bug in building the SDK for Mac, and just fixed it last week.  We've got it and are working on it now.  Theoretically it should only take a few hours to rebuild with the new SDK, but based on past experience with the Mozilla SDKs, I'm not making any predictions.  I'll post again here tomorrow or whenever we've got a feel for how it's going.

I think the old BookMacsterize bookmarklet should still work, though.  But I'll take your word for it and we'll look into that later.

Problems with Firefox 5.0?

Hi. I just upgraded to the latest version of Firefox and now when I choose the "Add Quickly" or "Add Quickly and Inspect" or the BookMacterize bookmarklet, nothing happens. Maybe something else is causing the problem, but I think it's the upgrade.
