As I recall, the Qt libraries handle url drag-n-drop while FFF has to handle d-n-d of whole emails. What happens when you drag a URL only from an email, I don't know off hand; but apparently it's different URL than from browser.

Also as I recall, I switched to using the Qt library handling for URLs because I couldn't make FFF's handling play nicely with editing across win/mac/lin.



Worked for me when I tested it just now. Without at least a storyURL, error message and (ideally) a debug log, I can't even look at it.



I don't read storiesonline.net, so I have to depend on what users tell me about it. If only one user speaks up, that's all I have. I don't even know if this is an issue for all stories viewed by all free accounts, or just some.

I forget which one(s), but at least one of the other supported non-fanfic sites has a similar issue--free accounts don't see all the text and/or chapters. And I believe we have a few other sites that only work with paid accounts.

The other practical option for this is to detect 'click to read more' and fail the download of that chapter - whether that also fails entire download depending on continue_on_chapter_error setting. I'm willing to do that--you'd get an error message and no text for that chapter at all instead of partial text.

If someone else wants to contribute code to work around the 'click to read more' that doesn't need a browser or javascript engine, I will probably accept it.
