    Hello,

    There is a problem with the javascript file “dlm-xhr.js” for newer versions of Safari (both mobile and desktop), making certain types of downloads appear not to work. The issue is this on line 448:

    downloadTab = window.open('', target);

    On safari, this will now flash a very short message “Popup Window Blocked” in the address bar. It does not seem to log the blockage in the console.

    On our part I’ve temporarily worked around this issue by adding

        // Apparently neccessary for Safari 2025-08-25
    if (!downloadTab) downloadTab = window;

    — tho this of course opens the link in the current window.

    I’m sorry! It seems I’ve reported this to the wrong plugin with a similar name – sorry for wasting your time.

    It doesn’t appear so. Where this happened was with the very newest version of Safari, Version 18.6 (20621.3.11.11.3), which seems to have gotten even stricter wrgt calling window.open. Looking at your code, it seems you call this in click events only where it is supposed to be valid still. Again, sorry for the mistaken report.
