WebExtensions support in release Firefox

I was trying out the new WebExtensions.

I am on Firefox 42.0 release version which has some support for WebExtensions.

I was testing out https://github.com/mdn/webextensions-examples/tree/master/beastify but the JavaScript does not work.

Am I missing something or the JS support is not present in FF42.0?

That isn’t much of a bug report :wink:

What does it actually do?

First time use in firefox 42.0 ubuntu the popup comes up with a menu of beasts.

Clicking a beast shows visual feedback, but the popup stays and no beast loads in the active tab.

On subsequent attempts the popup shows a grey background, no menu entries.

The extension works fine for me in firefox 44 and 45 on ubuntu.

Thank you @anaran

This isn’t a bug report per se. I was trying out the WebEx concept and run into a dead-end.

On Windows FF42.0, the popup comes up with a menu of beasts.
Clicking the beast does nothing and no errors on the console.

I have tried a few sample WebEx addons and none of them run their JS

I dont use not-release versions of FF.
