Location Bar Enhancer broken on mozilla-central since 2016-11-22

Hi!

It's just completely dead. Maybe this is the culprit: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1293305

Yes it is. I'll fix this and another one of my affected addon in couple of
days. Please go ahead if you are on the fix yourself! :)

Sorry. No competence. But I'll certainly keep watching this issue.

Now that Flashgot and Session Manager updated, it looks like this is the only addon I have that remains broken. Is there a fix on the horizon?

[mzso]

I did a mozregression test and it pointed to: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1317947
Which doesn't really seem to be related.

Note to self: Never use mozregression!

After realizing that "for each" is used twice, and following a suggestion to fix it, I tinkered a working version.

Here it is, if anyone wants to use it until a real fix is made:
location_bar_enhancer-5.3-fx-MOD2.zip

@mzso If you know how to use git, submit your changes as a pull request. This way Girish can merge the patch and release a fixed version for everyone.

Sorry I'm not familiar with git. (Or software development.) Anyway, I only changed two lines in helper.js as per the suggestions of this post.

@mzso GitHub also provides web interface for it. It is very easy to use. Browse to the file you want to edit in the "code" tab.

Click the pen/edit button. Do the edit, add some description what you did and then "Propose the file change". After that I think you can do the pull request or it does it automatically. I encourage you to try it out. 👍

Well, I did it.

(Meanwhile I noticed that Mozilla broke dropping text into the urlbar on nightly...)

Well, they fixed that issue in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1324410
It turns out it works better now than before with LBE (if you have the fore-each fix of-course). :) Now it works if you drop text on the breadcrumbs, you don't have to find an empty area on the urlbar.
