I just started using NoScript. I really wish the addon would show on the page what elements it has blocked from the page like for example Flashblock does. This would make using it a lot more intuitive. As it is now, I have very little idea on what stuff is actually blocked. Right clicking and seeing the list is not nearly as convenient or intuitive as would be seeing an empty frame with a NoScript icon on it that can be clicked to unblock (like you can do in Flashblock). At least for things like images and flash content this would be more intuitive.
Or maybe I'm missing something since on the page http://noscript.net/screenshots the second picture seems to show that this happens, but I haven't yet seen the NoScript icon on any page.
I appreciate the effort but I will probably not be using this addon because it makes me feel I'm missing stuff on a page that I didn't even realize I was missing, and finding this out by right clicking or by clicking the "pop-up" is just too slow. How did you learn to live with this predicament?

Re: Blocked content is not shown on the page - why?
By default it does show placeholders for blocked content; also, if you make a little change to its settings, NoScript will work just like those other three extensions (actually better, because it works on all plugins): http://noscript.net/features#contentblocking

Re: Blocked content is not shown on the page - why?
Can you point me to a page where a placeholder should be seen. Since for some reason I haven't seen them. Also does it really show placeholders for every blocked image, flash animation and so on?lewisje wrote:By default it does show placeholders for blocked content; also, if you make a little change to its settings, NoScript will work just like those other three extensions (actually better, because it works on all plugins): http://noscript.net/features#contentblocking

Re: Blocked content is not shown on the page - why?
NS is very very flexible in its configuration and the developer has chosen a default config that will let most new users navigate without too much confusion.
If you're not seeing placeholders in most of the usual sites, that's by design.
To play with the settings to see what control you can have over embeddings try the following:
At youtube.com, with all NS default settings, you should not see any placeholders.
However, if you select "apply these restrictions to whitelisted sites too" in the embeddings tab of the NS preferences you will first see a small flash placeholder at the top of the youtube home page, and at each video you select you should be presented with a placeholder.
Further examples from this page: choose to block iframes in the NS embeddings tab and you should see the big ad at the top of the page replaced with a placeholder. Mouse over the placeholder and you should see a tooltip description of the embeding - not its content but its origin etc.
If you don't see the above behaviour at youtube, something's not right. Come back and get more help if this is the case.
Finally, many sites only call for embeddings *after* you whitelist the main domain, and sometimes only after other domains are whitelisted - so when a user first gets to a page (not yet whitelisted) there are no placeholders because there are no embeddings called up at first.
I hope you give NS another try. The sticky post up the top of the forum http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopi ... 268#p34674 is well worth reading through carefully. Its take-home message is "when you visit a site and it seems not to work properly, open the NoScript menu by clicking on the logo in the top bar or by hovering the mouse pointer over the logo."
This menu gives you an almost infinity of permutations and combinations to play around with. Do have a go. It's going to deliver you immense control of your web navigation.
