Javascript seems to run on CNN page even when blocked

Post by Jacob »

Good afternoon,

I'm probably missing something simple, but I was reviewing a page on CNN and noticed what appears to be JavaScript working even when blocked by NoScript. In the middle of this page: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/b ... ml?cnn=yes there is a select box with a list of sports. When choosing one, it seems like the onchange event is being fired, resulting in redirection to a new page. None of the CNN sites are on my whitelist and the context menu doesn't show any of the sites on the page as trusted.

Any idea? I'm running NoScript 1.9.2.6 in Firefox 3.0.10 under Windows 7 64-bit RC.

Thanks!
Jacob

That is by design & is part of "Attempt to fix JS links".
