">" Character Caused Verification to Fail
Special character such as > used for replying caused verification to fail i tested using no ">" character and it's success, but when i add ">" as part of the message (not important where they are placed on the text), it will fail to verify, be on new message or replying message
Still not yet fixed (at least not in Chrome)
i haven't tested on Firefox as i'm in the middle of downloading something, but i will post an update when it's done
@willysr would you be willing to pull down the latest version of webpg-chrome (master) and give it a go?
Some changes to note -
- WebPG now supports sending and parsing PGP/MIME messages
- Issues with validating should (mostly) be a thing of the past.
Some cases where issues will arise is with special characters in the body of the email, as the quoted-printable decoder is not working as it should...
Sure. I'm assuming it should be fixed in Firefox as well?
Yes, I only mentioned the chrome repo because it is the easiest (IMO) to install from a repository.
Both of the repositories are synced though.
Hm... strange firefox works, but Google Chrome plugin installation failed
We encountered a problem while attempting to load WebPG
Error (-1): WebPG Plugin failed to load
Suggestions:
The plugin was unable to load

and here's what i got
That looks about right (the email was encoded with quoted-printable, however the quoted-printable decoder is disabled in WebPG).
As you can see, it validates, but the display is slightly garbled.
Regarding the issue in chrome, that seems very strange. If it loads in Firefox on the same machine, it should load without incident in chrome...
I don't know. I'm using the latest Google Chrome 35 here
Yeah, I just installed 35, and I have the same result... I know they are supposed to be dropping support for NPAPI, I just didn't think it was right now. I'll investigate.
I also found a new strange bug i received a signed message, in which i don't have the sender's public key, but then webPG convert it into a scrambled text just like it was an encrypted text
If I had to guess, that is a base64 encoded email... If it is, once I fix the encode/decoder(s) that will go away.
Yep looking at the headers
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Yes, the issue with chrome is due to the discontinuation of NPAPI support.
I have created an issue to address this problem kylehuff/webpg-chrome#102
I re-enabled the QP and Base64 decoders - the QP decoder still doesn't work well, however, it is better than not having any decoding at all (most for Base64).
