Remarks

1.8.0


With PM export, this script has a third party dependency, since Firefox as of version 16 doesn't natively support the required library. This has some implications:
  • The library will be installed automatically (and cached for future use) when this script is installed but not if it is simply updated. The script must be re-installed manually (just click the button; you don't have to uninstall). An alert should inform the user if the script is updated without the required library.
  • If a direct download is initiated the lack of native support means a file name cannot be specified. A work-around for Chrome 14+ is implemented but Firefox does not support it yet. However, upon saving a Web page Firefox will suggest the page title for the file name. Consequently, rather than trigger a download the script opens a new window with data that must then be saved as a Web page via the context menu or Ctrl+S.
  • Clicking to export a PM may result in a blocked pop-up. This pop-up is safe (it's the PM).
  • Firefox versions older than 14 are no longer supported.
