Internal FlashBlock is no more? The "Ask to Activate" doesn't work right anymore.
I moved from FF 22 to the latest version today and one of the few things I don't like is that I have to use Flashblock addon again. FF 22 had a click-to-activate option for plugins. I tried setting "Ask to Activate" in plugin options, but it works wrong. Once I enable Flash on one YouTube page, it gets enabled for all videos I open, making them autoplay. I can't think of any reason for these changes, because the old system had the ability to set permissions for a site in place and had all the benefits of Flashblock addon as well. Is there any chance of the old behavior returning? Is there any reason the new behavior, which is pretty much a subset of old functionality, is in place now?

hello GrayFace, the current click-to play behaviour will white-list plugin content by the same domain for the next 60 minutes (this is done to minimize the distraction for users having to constantly re-allow at each page-load).
in case you prefer the prior behaviour, you can use this addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/click-to-play-per-element

Thank you! That seems to work great.
