A specific incompatibility with Firefox 4.0b1:

Torbutton 1.2.5; Windows XP Pro.

Back button (and hence also Forward button) does not work with Tor Button add-in enabled. Firefox 'Back' context/menu item also disabled.

Repro:

1. Start a new Firefox session with Tor Button disabled.
2. Open page: www.google.co.uk
3. Click Google menu items: Images, News, Gmail to go to their respective pages in turn.
4. Note that Firefox back button is enabled and works.
5. Start a new Firefox session with Tor Button enabled.
6. Open page: www.google.co.uk
7. Repeat step 3.

Result:

Firefox back button is disabled so you can't go back from Gmail to News, Images and Search.

Should be fixed in 1.3.1-alpha. Reopen if not.

It doesn't work properly, instead you are constantly bombarded with [JavaScript Application] modal dialog boxes (this is in Linux) containing the text:

Torbutton Exception in sandbox evaluation. Date hooks not applied: TypeError: can't convert undefined to object

Apologies, should note this is with firefox 4.0 beta 12 not 1, still that's even worse.

I can confirm this with Firefox nightly 4.0b13pre (2011-03-17). So as far as i can conclude, this bug applies to Firefox 4 RC as well.

I should add that these dialog boxes appearing only if checkbox "Security Settings -> Dynamic Content -> Hook dangerous javascript (crucial)" enabled.

Just checked torbutton from git (c3e5474) with Firefox 4 RC. It works fine without any dialog boxes.

So my (random uneducated) guess is that these dialog boxes were about #2465 (closed) and we should wait for Torbutton 1.3.2

Thanks for your hard work, @mikeperry!
