How can I view which scripts are blocked?

[Raymond]

NS appears to be quite a boon, although I've only been using it for a couple of days now and am still learning the ins-n-outs of it.
Note that I am a casual surfer and not a "nerd", although I feel I surf much safer than most folks.
My question relates to the bottom tool bar for NS, specifically that area that reveals information about blocks, e.g.

Scripts Partially Allowed, 1/2 (google.com | <SCRIPT>:6 | <OBJECT>:0

I'm concerned that some functionality of a site may be blocked to me, without my being aware of it, unless I can see which scripts are specifically being blocked.
Is there some method that will allow me to view which specific scripts are being blocked?

Also, I'm a little confused by the information sometimes presented, as in the above example. That one shows that 1 of 2 scripts have been blocked, yet the <SCRIPT>:6 indicates there are 6 altogether. Am I interpreting this incorrectly?

The <OBJECT> entry also gets my attention, but I'll concern myself with that one at a later time. I can learn only so much at one feeding...

Unfortunately there's no way (unless you're a JavaScript expert and the code is easy to be reverse-engineered) to understand which script is tied to a certain functionality, because there's no visual relationship.

Is there some method that will allow me to view which specific scripts are being blocked?

Clicking the NoScript icon will show you the script sources, i.e. the sites where scripts have been laoded from (or have been blocked). This can give you some hints about what you're missing (e.g. if you read "acmeads.com" or "eviltracker.net" you know you can keep them blocked with no side effects).
Using the View|Page Source menu item will show the scripts embedded in the page you're viewing, while the JSView add-on will show you the external script. Again, if as you say you're not a "nerd" this level of detail will be likely useless to you.

This means that there are 2 script sources (i.e. origin sites) for this page. 1 (google.com) is allowed.
In the page there are 6 <SCRIPT> elements (<SCRIPT> is the HTML element used to import or declare scripts) and 0 <OBJECT> elements (<OBJECT> is the HTML element used to import plugin content, e.g. Flash or Silverlight).

Thank you, Giorgio. That answered my questions precisely, as well as the tag-along for the OBJECT query.
I have looked at Page Sources, both for overall and in-frame views, so I'm a bit familiar with that ability. (Used it for grabbing some files I couldn't extract otherwise.) I'll check out the JSView add-on and see what happens with that.

BTW: Been using this very old PC (8 years?) and have surfed into some rather odd corners of the 'net. Haven't seen a BSOD in over 2 years nor been infected (knock wood) in about 4 years. Both situations were easily solved with no losses.

Last note on this topic, if someone wishes to mark it as such.

Downloaded JSView this morning (it was recently upgraded to include FS 3.6, although not thoroughly tested yet) and have taken a view peeks at the views it can supply. Nice!
No, I don't understand most of what it can show me, but do understand enough of it to make some use of it. Hopefully, as time goes by, I'll get better with it and the ability it will allow me to make better use NS.

Many Thanks, Giorgio!

Where did you get your Fx 3.6 compatible version of JSView? The one hosted on AMO is not compatible. Did you get it from http://xsidebar.mozdev.org/modifiedmisc.html#jsview? For the past month I've been using that version, which is compatible and also includes some bug fixes. It seems to work pretty well.
