Hi, royallin.

I couldn't get all of the details from your GIF video, sorry, because I don't speak your language (Chinese?). However, it looks like what happened is:
  • The upload required a Flash object. NoScript blocked this and gave you a placeholder.
  • You clicked the placeholder, chose a file, but nothing happened; no progress bar.
  • You reloaded the page, with the same results.
  • You went to the NoScript menu, and allowed all objects from the site, rather than just the specific one. It still didn't work.
  • You reloaded the page again, and it now worked.
Is that correct?

Yes! :D b
All allowed all objects from the site *@http://115.com OR shockwave-flash@http://115.com and the page must be
reloaded again .

Probably the page relies on a Flash object running when the page loads. You might be able to find the specific Flash object via the NoScript menu, instead of allowing all, but I think that reloading the page will be unavoidable. For now, you can make it work by allowing all and reloading, yes? Maybe you can experiment and see what is the minimum that you need to allow.

I don't think that this is a bug in NoScript. It's just a complex page design.

Yes.but the rule "shockwave-flash@http://115.com " can't can be write into the whitelist of the onscript option.
The upload files is working well without "forbit flash".Hope noscript can fix it,just like the other ,click the placeholder.

It sounds like you need to switch off Options-Embeddings-"Apply these restrictions to whitelisted sites too". You can still block Flash for untrusted sites, but allow it for trusted ones.

If you're confident editing about:config, then you can try editing noscript.allowedMimeRegExp. See http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopi ... =23&t=6701 for more details.

You might need to wait for NoScript 3.x for the desktop or use ABE...there's a post at the top of the support board about site-specific permissions.

Try:

Code: Select all

application/x-shockwave-flash@https?://115\.com
That looks to be working.

Awesome, :D IT's worked!
Thank you!
1 请问是怎么找到 x-shockwave-flash的?noscript里的提示也只有shockwave-flash。
2 请问你通常混那些火狐中文论坛?欢迎到www.firefox.net.cn和g.mozest.com交流。


MOD_EDIT: Not sure why we need the statement of thanks finished with the Chinese but here is my rusty translation:
1 How may I ask finding x-shockwave-flash? the noscript tips also only shockwave-flash.
2 Do you usually interact with Firefox Chinese forum? Welcome to www.firefox.net.cn, and g.mozest.com exchange.

NOTE: To me it seems like a blatant and unnecessary plug, but will leave it to Giorgio's discretion.

HE is not Chinese and as the handle suggests "therube" he is full blooded American from somewhere in the good old east of the midwest in Maryland somewhere. Posting in Chinese doesn't help him and I understand it because I've been a Marine for 15+ years. @therube, correct me if I am wrong.
