Vimium cannot "click" select elements #2257
Comments
@daemedeor... Could you provide an example page? (This works on Facebook, for me.) |
Here: http://store.steampowered.com/agecheck/app/234140/?snr=1_239_4__122, if you have steam. also note: I'm on Chrome 53, Seirra, macOS. |
This sounds more likely to be a change in how the page is implemented. All Vimium does is "click" the element, and that hasn't changed. To get the drop down you have to hover (which Vimium cannot currently do). The Vimium click behaviour seems to be exactly the same as a mouse click. |
Hello, |
After a bit of investigation, it seems that it is indeed unstandard to be able to open a select element through javascript. Given that Chrome/ium is lately pushing to more standardization, I think it is unlikely they will go back to the old behavior. I would recommend at least triggering a 'focus' event on such elements, so the user can trigger it with space subsequently. |
@romgrk... If you're referring to the following console message regarding Regarding Chrome 54... I tried it, and didn't have any issues with link hints. Please post a link and a description of the steps to reproduce. |
Oh, well,
And no, it was a similar warning but it was triggered when "clicking" a select element. Unfortunately I can't give you any data because it doesn't show up anymore. |
OK. I see now. It's the same in Chrome 53. Edit... There's a better test page here. |
Before Chrome ~~52/~~53,

This happens also when browsing the python documentation. If you try to move to the same page for a different version of python using the drop down menu on the top left of the page. Browser: Google Chrome Version 53.0.2785.143 (64-bit) Interestingly the same doesn't happen in GitHub. |
@IamGianluca It's important to note that some "drop down boxes" are not really drop down boxes. Like the upper part where "Watch" is, even though the behavior is similar to a drop down, its actually a link. Probably so they could have an easier time to stylize it. Overriding the default select boxes are a world of pain |
Running |
I've also hit this issue, used to work, now no selects work with vimium. I see #2338 may fix this issue? Is there a way to get the update? (I don't see a new release). |
I think we'll push the new stuff in the coming week or two; just need to check with @philc. |
Any chance we can get a version bump? Not having access to dropdowns reduces the usefulness of this (otherwise excellent) extension. |
+1, let's release. No need to hold back the fixes in master.

Will do. Edit... Done. 1.58 is out. |
Previously when I used vim on Chrome 51 or thereabouts the dropdown used to open when I hit f and then the associated tag that vimium tagged the field with. Now vimium still tags the field but it doesn't seem to open the select boxes. I tried it on several pages by adding my own select boxes but I'm not quite sure why its not working. Any workaround?
