I just started using K-meleon and feel that this is a wonderful browser.

Somehow today when I tried to log into my Chase online account, it says "your browser is outdated..." and I can't log in.

I am using 76 beta 3 and set user agent at firefox compatible.

Any way to fix this?

thanks,

Fake/Spoof what they want. Lets be cloudgy and reuse code from 1.5.4 or earlier.

IMHO it still works. I updated the strings. Red - no more.
And updated the descrition what the strings stand for.

Ingredients:

A file named UserAgents.js in ./K-Meleon/Browser/defaults/Preferences

Create file UserAgents.js, insert subsequent code and drop to the mentioned place.

/********************************************************************************************************/
// Privacy Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:24.3) Gecko/20140105 Firefox/24.0 K-Meleon/74.0

pref("kmeleon.privacy.useragent0.name", "Firefox 38 ESR");

A file called useragent.kmm in ./K-Meleon/macros/

Create useragent.kmm, insert subsequent code and drop to the mentioned place.

Hi I tried your code.
Now there is no pop up at Chase.com but I still can't log in using K-meleon.
Using Firefox 43.02 login with no problem. So there must be some more complicated set up then merely version identification.

thanks anyway.

If they are happy now with your version, then it's probably just 2 independent requirements of them. Check your cookie settings? And possible other blocks, like referer etc...

Do you get to this page? https://chaseonline.chase.com/

My bank requires Javascript enabled. Have you got js enabled?

https://www.chase.com/ requires JavaScript and Cookies like all banking sites.

Plus their idiotic minimum browser requirement. The old code only takes care of that later.

That is all I can say. Because its not my banking site.


p.s. activate via View Toolbars the Privacy Bar so that You can easily see whether JS and cookies are allowed or deactivated.

Yes, I have cookies and JS enabled, Java blocked.
Still not working. Only this chase website is not working under K-meleon.
when I put in my name and pwd, click logon with no response but other links at the webpage works fine.

Americanexpress website works fine. Maybe I'll contact their customer service tomorrow.

No idea, but perhaps the FF-compatibility mode must be OFF if UA is faked manually...

Perhaps AdBlocking must be disabled...

Perhaps whatever is still blocked, "mybrowserinfo.com" could be used to compare the detailed results of FF and KM...

Or perhaps it's the same old gecko bug as in Seamonkey here, but have no idea which gecko-version that concerns exactly:

The steps recommended by Phillip Chee solved the problem for me, Thanks Phillip:
1. Restart SeaMonkey. DO NOT go to chase.com YET
2. Open the Error Console (in KM: Tools/Error Console)
3. Evaluate: Components.utils.import("resource://gre/modules/Webapps.jsm");
4. Try to login to chase.com

... "mybrowserinfo.com"...

That pages says for my 76 b3 that JavaScript disabled when it is on.

I'd use http://browserspy.dk/ More detailed.

p.s. Maybe try with 75.1.

IF the info from mybrowserinfo.com has any value it might be due to partly dysfunctional JS in 76 beta.

Your guess is correct, Sir.

Just downloaded 75.1 version and log into Chase website with no problem, althoug it still says your web browser is outdated.

Guess you guys need to fix something at 76beta3.

One more question, how do I move my set up at 76 beta 3 to 75? Just move all the folders under K-meleon folder? I use portable version.

guenter is sufficiant unless Your "Sir" is intended to be ironic.


76beta3 is a beta after all. Maybe You post in the 76beta thread that You found a glitch. Just to make sure that Dorian is informed that You encountered a problem.


Delete the new 75.1's ./Profiles folder that contains only new data and replace it with the one from the old portable You want to synck it with. That is enough unless You have done unusual customisations.

The data structure are mostly compatible since way back.

No ironic intension at all, Guenter.
I was so happy to find k-meleon browser and intended to use it as my main browser.

thank you for the suggestion and happy new year!

cheers,

most sites check only if version is greater than .....

pref("kmeleon.privacy.useragent1.name", "Firefox 99");
pref("kmeleon.privacy.useragent1.sites", "");
pref("kmeleon.privacy.useragent1.string", "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; OpenBSD amd64; rv:99.0) Gecko/20160101 Firefox/99.0");

works like a charm
