Not supported. No plans to backport.

My personal opionen: Open technologies are replaced with obscure 
implementations benefitting the big players more and more. This is one of the 
efforts.

If they built with --disable-calendar or not enabling it Lightning 
will not work. There are some binary components which need to go into 
SeaMonkey.


I am using a locally self compiled 2.53.1 with OpenSuse. I suggest 
just using the official version from seamonkey-project.org

(I should probably ask that somewhere else).  Yeap, somewhere else 
like mozilla.support.calendar newsgroup on this same news server, I'm 
guessing, Don! ;-P

Hi,

Does SeaMonkey support DoH and if it does how can it be enabled?

Also does anyone know the pros and cons of using DoH?

iframe codes cause havoc uploading htmls

[tangerinetwilight]

If I upload a html with iframes embedded, it causes all kinds of havoc on my 
uploads from there on out.  It will send the html to the wrong folder even 
though it is has been checked TEN THOUSAND TIMES to be sent to the folder it's 
suppose to be.  

All web pages have to be deleted off the web providers server and reuploaded to 
make changes. This is because it will not rewrite the page if iframes are 
included. The only thing that has worked is to edit code at server and only 
after the page with no iframe codes on it has been uploaded.then you 
have to enter aka add the iframe codes on the host editor by hand there.  This 
makes working on pages and making changes practically impossible.
  
I've tried everything .   Maybe it's my host.  Desperate for feedback.
Leslie.

By default, I have media.autoplay.enabled set to false.  When there is a
video I want to play, I use PrefBar to change it to true (selecting a
checkbox on the PrefBar tool bar).  I then reload the Web page, and the
video plays.

With media.autoplay.enabled set to false, I just now loaded a YouTube
Web page with Bizet's L'Arlésienne Suites No. 1 & No. 2.  There was no
button to start the video.  I then changed media.autoplay.enabled to
true, but there still was no way to play the video.  The video started
after I reloaded the Web page; at that point, buttons did appear.

That is not strictly true.  HTML5 autoplay is disabled.  There should still be 
a play button you can click to get it to play, in most cases.  There are a few 
sites where you need autoplay enabled to get the video to play even after you 
click the play button, but I have an extension that gives me a button to 
toggle the setting.

Thank you for those that replied,



Glad to see that it's working again.

Going one step further, I think chances are pretty high that you don't 
need Flash at all, and it's likely to be safe to uninstall entirely.


I removed Flash a couple of years ago, and I've only seen a couple of 
sites that complain about Flash not being available, and they're not 
ones that I care about delivering video content.  I've had no problems 
at all with YouTube and not having Flash installed.


With proprietary video players, I've found that it's generally best to 
uninstall everything, unless you know that you have specific need for 
one. If you encounter a site that requires a specific player, they'll be 
quick to let you know (and generally offer you a link for a download). 
But until you know you need a specific player, you don't need it.


If the only reason that you have Flash is for YouTube, I suggest that 
you uninstall it.  One less potential security issue, and one less thing 
that you have to maintain with timely updates.

I recently got a message from Adobe saying I needed to upgrade Flash 
Player. Well, stupid me said OK. (What's that old saying if it ain't 
broke don't fix it. Well, it was not broke put now it is.


When I went to YouTube it would not play any videos. Uninstalled the new 
version and went to my archives and installed a version that I knew 
worked. Well that did not fix the problem.


It show all the recommended boxes that should play reviews of things you 
may want to see. However, all the boxes are are gray boxes. All of the 
web site is mostly gray there are link and radio buttons they to are gray.


I uninstalled that version and now I have no flash player installed. 
What course of action do I need to take here?


Drive Booster says all my drivers are up to date. Plus they are the same 
driver I was using when it was working, before Adobe screwed me over.


Thank you for any help you maybe able to give.
