CR Companion Status

With the move to JS-Kit, CR Companion is dead in the water. It will notify you of new posts, and give you the title of the post you're associated with, but I recommend disabling it. I don't think it will cause any bad behavior, but don't want to spend the time on that right now.

Many are asking when CRC will reappear, and I'm sorry to say it may be awhile. I'm frustrated with the service we're getting from JS-Kit, and want to improve upon it. So instead, I'm spending my time right now getting a new commenting system up and running, one that I think will suit the CR community. If you're interested in that effort, please come join the discussion over at our google group CRSiteDev.

1.10 Update - Editor Fixes

This version fixes several annoying bugs in the editor. My apologies for not seeing them - I haven't been posting enough to notice.

- switching to another non-haloscan tabbed browser caused the editor to freeze.
- Paste from other sources lost newlines.
- Entering a url that had a space at the beginning caused unexpected results (we now trim it).
- Urls that had embedded ampersands were converted to & entities, which haloscan choked on.

1.09 Update

Leaving CRC's Post Comment window open when closing a CR comments tab put CRC into a CPU spiking state. This version provides a fix.

Big Kudos to Jay Sundahl for tracking down a reproducible scenario of this problem!

1.08 Available

This version fixes CR Companion's interference with Google Toolbar.

1.07 Update

This revision is a bug fix release in preparation for the move to JS-Kit's new format.

The following bugs have been fixed:

• Spell checking was not on by default when composing a comment.
• When pasting from another source, script tags were included.
• The last four characters were intermittently omitted when posting (this one is a hopeful, as I've never been able to reproduce the problem).
• The author rating filter's current setting was not saved across browser sessions.

Note: if you don't see 1.07 right away, try again later. Mozilla takes awhile to update their pages.
