JS in MailNews is gone for good: <http://kb.mozillazine.org/Javascript.allow.mailnews> The reason that the pref is still appearing in about:config is that the relevant patch applies against core code which follows different time schedules. The pref will be removed from about:config in SeaMonkey 2.1. <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248280> HTH JensThanks.But hasn't that always been the case, stretching back into netscape? I believe that there are some vestigial files as well........... jim
And that's why I'm not a fan of fiddling with about:config...user input/control should be provided in user Preference panels - it's one thing if I come here and get info on a workaround from a knowledgeable individual, in advance of a forthcoming fix, but as a general, generic user I should never even have to think about about:config.
Just trying to get people to think before/when they code.
