Re: [Bug-gnuzilla] reappearing message on "hidden elements"
Yes, this is due to the inbuilt add-on "Reveal hidden HTML elements" as Narcis pointed out. Just disable it from the Addon Manager or from about:config and you'll get rid or this annoying shit.

It is about the semi-transparant buttons at the top. «Click to reveal hidden elements/remove buttons» are removed by disabling the «Reveal hidden HTML elements» extension. The «Complain» is to complain to the website owner about the non-free JavaScript. When I click on «Click to reveal hidden elements/remove buttons», they go away on that page. I don't understand the function. I will propose something about enabling/disabling some extensions by default, in a proper bug report. —Marco -- http://gnuzilla.gnu.org

Narcis and others— Je 28 jan 13:25 skribis Narcis: > I disable this plugin on all computers, because CUPS webpage > (localhost:631) doesn't work with it. I now see it is the «Reveal hidden HTML elements» extension. So I disabled it, and the buttons are not displayed anymore. I understand that you remove the extension when your local CUPS website does not work. However, I tested this on Parabola just now, and my experience is that the CUPS website does not function properly (empty help page for instance) because of the LibreJS plugin, not the «Reveal hidden HTML elements» plugin. Have been discussions already on what extensions to enable by default? There would be friction between what is needed for privacy on the one hand, and what is needed for the working of websites on the other hand. Probably the web is too broken for those things to be reconcilable. —Marco P.S. Can anyone tell me if there is a relevant difference between the terms «plugin», «add-on» and «extension»? I can see the structure how Firefox/IceCat uses them (plugins, extensions \in add-ons), but didn't we use to call these things all plug-ins? Maybe plugins are external pieces of software, whereas extensions are using internal Firefox/IceCat scripting. -- http://gnuzilla.gnu.org

I disable this plugin on all computers, because CUPS webpage (localhost:631) doesn't work with it.
