Thanks for the toggle feature. I have noticed one bug, though. Whenever you choose Options or About from the buttons drop down menu, the page is automatically white-listed or "black-listed" (removed from the white-litst). I'm not positive, but I don't think it happens with the other optoins (i.e. Allow [URL], Temporarily allow [URL], or Allow Scripts Globally). Thanks again.

I've just fixed it, please re-download the same version from http://noscript.net/getit (thanks God it's not published yet on AMO)
Thank you!

I'll make it optional in next release.
In the meanwhile, if you just don't tolerate it but you don't want to downgrade NoScript, you may want to install the userChrome.js extension (which I've just discovered thanks to your problem, and I feel will become one of my favourites) and put these lines in your userChrome.js file:
Code: Select all
(function() {
var tbb = document.getElementById("noscript-tbb");
if(tbb) {
tbb.type = "menu";
tbb.oncommand = "";
}
})();
Hope it helps

I'm using Firefox v1.5.0.3. and Noscript 1.1.4. which is great. However, I'm being told for the last 3 days that there is an update to 1.1.4.1. and when I click on install it does it with the usaual, "Firefox will have to be restarted", and after the restart 1.1.4.1. is still there waiting to be installed. This has been going on now for 2 days, and nomatter how many times i click on install and then restart Firefox, it never updates. ??? Any one else with this problem. My OS is W2K sp4 with latest updates. Thanks for the great software.

NoScript
Hey guys,
I'm running the latest version of the NoScript on my 1.5.0.3 Firefox Browser... which was an improvment from just the browser ---so I thought. =P
Dont get me wrong, I loveeee no-script. However I was looking at "Abandonware" software for my PC, and I visited Old-Games.RU ...it wouldnt allow me to even see the programs untill I allowed their site and Google-Stitistics to run scripts... and I happened to have more problems with not going anywhere else, so I opened the no-script consol to manually imput the site address and noticed all these addresses I HADNT put in... things like IWantYou.com and... ---you get the picture, all those really ICKY sites.
All in all by allowing that site to run a temporary script to try and look around on their site, it invited unintentionally around 20 different sites access to run scripts on my computer. Is this a known bug? I think it poses a major security threat to the browser it's self, let alone with the NoScript.
Is there anything I can do? (besides the obvious "DONT LOOK FOR ABANDONWARE ANYMORE..!" ...and I thought it wasnt Warez... *sigh*)
Thanks Guys

I simply cannot stand NoScript for the following single reason: It repeatedly annoyed me with the pop-bottom bar alerting me to the fact that it's found something. A bar which wouldn't go away until I ran the mouse down to click the tiny close box.
It took like fifteen seconds to drive me nuts: "Shut the HELL UP, you mother#@%%$!, and get OFF my screen!"
Tell me that this "feature" is gone, and I'll think about re-installing it.

No it is not, and it can't happen automatically.

Those bars are ladies who behave better when they're treated gently: just click the Options button and uncheck "Show message about blocked scripts", or do the same from NoScript Options|Appearance (by the way, this option has been there since the very first versions ).

Just an FYI for those that don't like the toggle feature, you can still select which site to enable/disable JS on with the drop arrow. This, of course, is with the icon placed in the Navigation Toolbar. This allows NoScript to behave like Adbock Plus with the extensions.adblockplus.defaulttoolbaraction from about:config set to 3. If you already knew that or figured it out yourself, then nevermind. Just giving a heads up for those that may have missed it.

(I'm more of a "Get in the truck, bitch; I gotta GUN!" type.)
I'll give it another shot. Maybe it'll clean off those lingering scrolling-text banners that Adblock won't handle. (Now if you could make a selective TABLE-nuker -- like the Yahoo! text-ad table that appears after you send or reply, that'd be the complete shizzitz.)

BTW, if you're also the guy who does Flashgot, I think it'd be a vast improvement if you'd find a way to move all of its commands off the right-click pop-menu to someplace else. That poor, suffering menu is overabused as it is, and a half-dozen more Flashgot additions make the sucker *scroll* half the time at 1024x768, which it just simply should not do....because it's a super gargantuan pain in the ass when it does that.
Why not a nice, tiny button down the status bar, or a menu on the menu bar? I have at least six or seven empty inches of space on those.

There's a FlashGot entry in the Tools menu. If you choose the More Options... option, you'll get to an interface where you can disable the items from the context menu. Just select the Menu tab and uncheck the options you don't want to be displayed and check the Hide Disabled Commands check box. You can also hide the icons and display the context menu entries as a submenu of the context menu.

I'm not sure if I've found a bug or there's something I've overlooked. I find that on some AJAX-intensive sites, particularly digg.com, page refreshes seem to occur when they should not. For example, if I'm viewing comments on digg and I hit the "show comment" button above a hidden comment, the page reloads and then I see the revealed comment. If I set Noscript to allow scripts globally before hitting "show comment", the comment is revealed without a refresh as it should be. I've allowed every single site Noscript can "see" on digg and still no luck.
It's not a huge problem but rather annoying. I really don't want to be turning "Allow scripts globally" all the time as I'm likely to forget about it one of these days. Is there a site that Noscript is missing on digg or is something else restricting me from my full AJAX-y experience. This is on Firefox 1.5.0.2 and Noscript 1.1.4, but I've been having this problem for as long as I can remember.

:oops: I'll make it optional in next release.
Thanks! I appreciate it. This is one of the best extensions, BTW :-)
In the meantime, I'll use the prev. version until the next release.
