If an entry into user.js is not recognized by SeaMonkey as being valid,
it will not appear in about:config.  This includes errors in syntax in
the setting, and also settings that are simply not recognized.  The
format for entries in user.js is the same as that for prefs.js.



To check whether SeaMonkey loaded all of user.js into prefs.js
successfully, insert
user_pref("00_user.js.loaded", "user.js load failed");
as the very first line of user.js and
user_pref("00_user.js.loaded", "yes");
as the very last line of user.js, all with SeaMonkey not running.  Note
that the semicolon (;) is required.

Then, launch SeaMonkey and enter about:config in the address area (URI
bar).  You should see
00_user.js.loaded   user set  string  yes
if the entire user.js file was okay.  If there was a problem, you will
instead see
00_user.js.loaded   user set  string  user.js load failed

This also works with Thunderbird and should work (but I have not tested
it) with Firefox.



Thank you, I've saved this.

Does anyone know for certain which Windows programs will work to edit 
and save SM config files? And with what settings? Are they ASCII? ANSI? 
I figured that's where I went wrong, trying to edit prefs.js.


Use an ordinary text editor, not a word processor.

The prefs.js file is plain ASCII text.  Unlike Daniel, I prefer always
using Wordpad.  I even set Wordpad as the default appplication for when
I select "Edit" on the context menu for all .js files.


So at least there's no need to worry about that. I can just right-click 
"Open with" and use Notepad or Wordpad depending on size.




If using Wordpad just make sure that you Save As Text. There are other 
formats WP can use that will totally screw up your file.

This works, I am duly amazed.

With both Notepad and (after toggling value to null) in Wordpad, no 
problems.


Thank you very much.


Alls well that ends well!! Good to hear!

Have had increasing problems playing video in SM for a long time now.
Getting the latest SM version doesn't help. Seems it all stems from
ongoing, behind-the-scenes jostling between flashplayer, WEBM and the
HTML5 player. Currently I can't play anything on Facebook or 
Instagram,

and many news sites have video that won't play. The latest nonsense on
many news sites is a message saying "This video could not be loaded -
crossdomain access denied". No idea exactly what that implies.

Are other SM users having these sort of problems?


I was googling around and found something for
"Cannot load M3U8: crossdomain access denied"
(not that the solution made sense to me) so I have to ask: did you
change the error-message before posting it here?


I think that "M3U8" was part of it, at least on some occasions, but the
key part is the reference to "crossdomain access".

Some of the people who had that error were using something called PleX
and had to change a setting, this seemed to be independent of the
actual browser used.





If you saw M3U8, that appears to be just as important as the 
"crossdomain access denied".  Google the entire string above - 
including the double quotes - and see what applies.


Whether you google "crossdomain access denied" or "Cannot load M3U8: 
crossdomain access denied", you get essentially the same list of 
citations, none of which, I might add, are particularly helpful.
