Re: Images in Firefox not displaying?

Works in Chrome. FF is grrred up. Thanks for your time justin.

network.http.sendRefererHeader has to be set to 2 (default).

I have this problem on Opera 12.15. I have used Opera since version 3 shortly after I got my first computer. I've told Opera to block referrer information as long as that has been available in Opera Options. I've never had a problem anywhere on the internet until now here. Opera was my default browser for several years and this setting did not cause any problems. But I understand not wanting images stolen.

I guess I will not use Opera here anymore. I did not change the setting on Fx so it is ok here.

Changing it to "2" allows firefox to now see images with the sites change.

Here is what the options are and what it exposes having the browser set to different values

Here is a detail of why its bad

I'm probably just going to leave it so the images don't show, I don't like having to send refer information when the content is within this site, it leaves one open to cross scripting which is a very bad thing plus about 6 other things.

I've gone back to using https everywhere and will re-set referrer to 0 most likely. I've temporarily disabled adblock but the adverts are broken still anyway -- and since I have an absolute policy of NEVER clicking on an advert the functional value to DslReports is nil from me. Since, however, I paid for a premium membership I feel absolved from being forced to look at them in any case.

Since you're logged in, you'd never see ads here anyway (unless you're on a test page that throws them up just for testing). When I last used ABP, I disabled it on DSLR--nothing to block.

lol, thanks GlennAllen. Actually after shutting it off last for this site I didn't bother re-starting it and also left the referrer at 1 through laziness. But was indeed wondering where the heck these adverts were. lol, doh. Thanks too to, WWa for mentioning the default value.

abp is also a CPU hog because every element is compared to a million different selector patterns in case it is an advertising div of some kind.

Well all is magically working with images again, I assume Justin turned of his anti-leech code?
