David, I think you are missing Rick's point; if you are on the link from the OP and then close the tab you get nailed by the 'Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page?' popup. At that point, even with Prefbar (which I always use), you can't disable the javascript as it has already been enacted in order to do the popup. Yes, you can disable if you know the site does this beforehand, but in that case you might want to: 1) notify the site that you don't appreciate their clever nonsense, 2) don't visit the site, or 3) both. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
