Has anyone noticed bookmarklets not working when multi-process is turned on?

I installed a V 51 developer edition to test out multi-process, and when multi-process was on, my bookmarks that modify the dom did not work. Any one else noticed anything similar?




That's sounds like a bug, as if the bookmarklet is executed in the main browser process and can't see the page's DOM. What DOM bookmarklet water you using? The Pinboard bookmarklet works for me but it is not agreeing the DOM.


I tried the "WhatFont" bookmarklet, which inspect DOM elements and reports the fonts used. It works for me in Firefox Nightly 53 with e10s enabled.

Just tested Firefox Nightly 53 with the three bookmarklets I use most often, they all work in 53. Therefore it must have been a bug with the 51 version.


What are some of the bookmarklets and sites you are testing? I'm not able to reproduce the failure with the "WhatFont" bookmarklet in Firefox 50-53.
