Release 3.0.0.0

This is a Chrome only release, based on the manifest3 github branch!

• Migrated to Manifest V3, required by Chrome (#181)
• Fix Dutch text in the English language menus (#164)
• Remove shortcut key management (#143)
• Fix 'More...' contextmenu from textfield not opening FHC popup
• Remove custom scrollbar

This version is submitted to the Chrome Webstore today, review and release may take up to a week, fingers crossed....

Release 2.5.8.1

 Maintenance release (Firefox only):

• Fix Dutch text in the English language menus (#164)
• Remove shortcut key management (#143)
• Fix 'More...' contextmenu from textfield not opening FHC popup
• Remove custom scrollbar

After not having worked on FHC for many months due to some personal issues I finally found the time and motivation to pick where I had left

Luckily finishing the migration to Manifest v3 was relatively painless having done much of the work earlier. Although Mozilla still has not set any deadlines for this migration, Chrome has made Manifest v3 mandatory and disabled all extensions still using Manifest v2.

Updates for Manifest v3 are done in a separate github branch which I use for testing versions on Firefox and testing+releasing versions for Chrome. This branch uses add-on version 3.x.x.x

Release 2.1.0.1, platform compatibility fix

Release 2.0.3.2 Bugfix

Remove prematurely (incomplete) option features.

These additional preferences should not have been released, these extra options do completely nothing.
They were added in preparation for a new feature but got accidentally released.
Apologies for that, it is fixed (removed) in this 2.0.3.2 release.

Release 2.0.3.1 German translation update

A small correction was needed for the German translation. The German datatables.json file which contains locale specific translations for the jQuery datatables plugin was not UTF-8 encoded.

Release 2.0.3.0 Language Update

Thanks to Michael Illgen who volunteered to do the German translation this add-on is now also available in German.

If you also want to participate here are the instructions:

• First download the add-on to a location of your choosing. You can download the latest version here: https://github.com/stephanmahieu/formhistorycontrol-2 and use the green "Clone or Download" button. Either use git (if you have that installed and know how to use it) or download the zipfile and unpack.
• The file you should translate is located in the \_locales\xx\ subdirectory where xx is the language tag of the country, the file should be named messages.json. If the xx directory does not exist yet, you can create it and copy the files from \_locales\en\ into the new xx directory. You can find more on this subject and links to find the correct country tag here: Reference/Global_Objects/Intl
• The messages.json file contains multiple labels with each having a message and a description. You should only translate the message part! The description is only there to give the translator an indication of what the message is used for (see for example the nl version). Please do not add empty lines or break up existing lines into multiple lines.
• The \locales\xx\ subdirectory also contains a datatables.json language file, this file is used by the jquery datatables plugin. For this plugin there are already many translations available.For a complete list see: https://datatables.net/plug-ins/i18n/.
• If you want to test your translation, you can do so in a separate Firefox profile. See support.mozilla.org on how to create an extra profile. Within this profile you can load the add-on version you downloaded in the first step by entering "about:debugging" in the URL bar and then click "Load Temporary Add-on". Next you choose the "manifest.json" file of the add-on you downloaded in the first step. The add-on should now be available in your profile (see mozilla for detailed instructions).
  If you are using an international version of Firefox, it may very well be that you are not seeing the desired translation but the (default) english translation instead. In that case you can switch the default language by entering "about:config" in the URL bar, search for "general.useragent.locale", and set the value to the tag for the desired language, for example "de" for German.
  In some cases switching the locale to does not work for whatever reason but it probably has something to do with not being able to display international characters. I can for example switch between dutch and english, but switching to greek (el) did not work for my FF version. If switching the language does not work, you  may have to download a Language specific version of Firefox.
  If you made changes in the messages.json file, you have to reload the add-on (on the about:debugging page) in order to see the changes
• When you are finished translating you can send the translated file back to me and I will add it to the release. If you are using git you can do a pull request, otherwise you may send the translated messages.json file to me by email.
