Separate image is blocked

Post by bers »

Try to open http://fun.drno.de/pics/werbung/katzenweissbrot.jpg
It's invisible. Is this intended? When opening a single image in a tab, I usually know what I do and don't want Adblock to interfere.
Thanks

There are at present a lot of issues with Adblock Plus for Chrome. I would imagine that the behaviour will eventually match that of the Firefox version, which does not activate when viewing individual items.

It is actually pretty hard to recognize stand-alone images in Chrome. From the extension's point of view it is just a regular HTML page embedding an image. In a similar scenario in Firefox (stand-alone objects) we can use document.contentType to recognize these cases. Unfortunately, Chrome doesn't implement this property. Right now I cannot really see a way to fix this short of comparing image address and document address - not exactly a fail proof approach.
