Firefox Headers & Footers no longer printed with NoScript

[Renee]

After installing NoScript, I find that my headers & footers no longer print for Firefox. There has not been any change to the Firefox Page Setup (i.e. Headers and Footers are still setup). I am using A4 size paper. How can I get them back with NoScript? I am running Windows 8.1.

When this issue occurs, do you see anything related in the Browser Console? (Ctrl-Shift-J)
(if you don't know what's related, turn off CSS warnings and post everything else you see)

Have you tried Allowing Scripts Globally, if so does that help?

It could also be coincidence that it started when you installed NoScript... as a test, does disabling NoScript (Tools > Add-ons Manager > NoScript > Disable > Yes, remove ALL protections) get it working? If not then this is not related to NoScript.


Let us know, thanks.

Thanks. I've found the browser console. There are some interesting things there, which I will post, But, how do I turn off CSS warnings first?
Also, since I've been training NoScript for some months now to do what I want, I prefer not to allow everything globally as a test. It may be something I need to allow, but I'd like to look at other things first.
If I disable NoScript and then enable it again, will it remember what I have allowed or disallowed?

I think CSS warnings are already off (I right clicked CSS tab). Here is what I see in the console browser:

Also, since I've been training NoScript for some months now to do what I want, I prefer not to allow everything globally as a test. It may be something I need to allow, but I'd like to look at other things first.
If I disable NoScript and then enable it again, will it remember what I have allowed or disallowed?

Neither Allowing Scripts Globally nor disabling NS should erase your whitelist. If you are at all concerned for any reason, you might as well back up your entire NoScript configuration first, it can't hurt.
NoScript Options > Export (the one on the very bottom, *not* the one unique to the Whitelist panel).

As to the console messages you did it correctly but there is unfortunately no way to tell which if any are related to the problem.
And please post console messsages in code tags in the future (I'll fix it above)

It could also be coincidence that it started when you installed NoScript... as a test, does disabling NoScript (Tools > Add-ons Manager > NoScript > Disable > Yes, remove ALL protections) get it working? If not then this is not related to NoScript.

Barbaz,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!
You were right, it was a coincidence that it started when I installed NoScript. I tried disabling NoScript as you suggested and the problem was still there. Turns out that my top and bottom margins had been changed to values that were too small, so that the headers and footers did not display. I've fixed that and now everything works as it is supposed to! I really appreciate your help. I am very glad that you told me my WhiteList entries would still be there after doing the Disable then Enable for NoScript, as I didn't want to have to start over with the training for NoScript!!! Again, thank you very much.

You're welcome!
Thanks for posting the solution and glad you got it working.
