Firefox 23 hit the Ubuntu repos the other day, which means that Abrowser 23
should hopefully be here soon as well. Is Ruben going to modify the FF 23
source code to bring back the disabling of JavaScript for Abrowser 23?
Well, that is a very sad decision from Mozilla. They have made some... not
very good decisions over the last few months unfortunately. I think that
taking away a easy solution from the user to disable JS is a poor choice. But
I don't really care about that, as we still have NoScript. But I
Images can be blocked using Adblock Plus. Right-click on the image, then
click on Adblock Plus: Block image..., then set the filter rule.
Wouldn't the NoScript addon work?
I think that actually this isn't such a bad idea since both prefs can be
toggled via about:config. A normal user will never disable JS or images, so
the check boxes to do so are just clutter. (Well, they do inform the normal
users of the existence of JS though...)
I wish Mozilla had gone the other way; that is, put a block javascript'
option in preferences, then an 'exceptions' option for making the white list.
If you leae 'block javascript' unchecked, you get it all. I'm also with T3G

I know there are ethical issues on why some of you want to disable
JavaScript, but disabling it pretty much makes most sites unusable in 2013.
For the average person, having the option to enable/disable won't be an issue

Un minified JavaScript code is pretty much the source, but many of you have
an issue with custom code created by the site owner that is minified and
unreadable.
Source code is useless without a free license.
I think it is probably a good idea to remove options most people never use.
As long as web browsers have a view source option, you can peek around in
the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript all you like. That is one of the beauties of
the web as I cannot view source of Microsoft Word's code in the menus.
Maybe that's why a lot of devs choose not to put it under a free

I was testing Firefox Nightly 24.0a1 and have seen only block pop-ups in
preferences dialog and unfortunately they removed Disable Javascript[1].
This coming with Firefox 23 and probably Abrowser 23 too.
Now the way to disable is about:config or NoScript.

Thanks. :-) I don't think it will work for SSL websites, but that's
