NateM Posted May 5, 2006 at 01:39 PM Report Posted May 5, 2006 at 01:39 PM Hello all, I've been an avid user of adsotrans since I first found out about it, (a whopping 2 weeks ago). However, last night Firefox did an automatic update and now adsotrans seems to be broken. I can still activate it and it will pop up with definitions of the words, but the characters themselves no longer show up in that little pop-up, (they are fine on the page itself, however). Perhaps the update messed up the encoding for the plug-ins, somehow? Anyone got a good quick-fix for this? Quote
mandarinstudent Posted May 5, 2006 at 11:53 PM Report Posted May 5, 2006 at 11:53 PM Im having the same problem, except it is with the adsotrans "greasemonkey" plugin that I found on this forum. After the Firefox auto-update the window pops up when I click the characters, but in the window is mostly ???????Anyone know how to fix this? Quote
sui.generis Posted May 6, 2006 at 01:24 AM Report Posted May 6, 2006 at 01:24 AM I thought that I was doing something wrong, but now that I think of it, the first time firefox auto-updated to 1.5.0.1, it broke my 同文堂 plugin, and that didn't start working again until a newer version of the plugin was released. Instead of characters, mostly ??'s (and a few other random characters) show up. Some of them still have the appropriate pop-ups with definition and pronunication, but some of them don't. Quote
NateM Posted May 6, 2006 at 03:13 AM Author Report Posted May 6, 2006 at 03:13 AM Yup, that's what I'm getting too. I wonder if the updates are reverting the encoding for the plug-ins back to a Western European setting somehow. I don't really know how to check that, though. Quote
trevelyan Posted May 6, 2006 at 09:34 AM Report Posted May 6, 2006 at 09:34 AM Sorry guys. This looks like an encoding issue. Was fixing some issues with pinyin generation for numbers and implementing a few new features. Must have screwed it up sometime. Will get on it now. Quote
trevelyan Posted May 6, 2006 at 10:24 AM Report Posted May 6, 2006 at 10:24 AM Fixed. It was a server problem -- nothing to do with Firefox. Sorry for the inconvenience. Quote
