[Unrelated] MSNBC broken

[7Jack]

MSNBC site (www.msnbc.com) was working previously. I believe with version 5.0.4 of NoScript. But MSNBC website now all messed up with version 5.0.5 and no longer works. Can anyone else confirm? Will this get fixed? Thanks.

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)

I had this when I first tried browser console:

I now have this in browser console after reloading the website:

Not sure if that helps you.

Does it work with Allow Scripts Globally and no sites Marked as Untrusted?

[7Jack]

I tried Allow Scripts Globally, disabled NoScript & removed NoScript. Still had corruption on MSNBC website. Tracked problem to HTTPS Everywhere addon. That addon was updated at the same time as NoScript. Seems to have turned itself on for MSBNC site. I just assumed NoScript was to blame.

I also cleared cache & cookies with some other stuff to make sure nothing was corrupted. Going to re-install NoScript very soon but think it'll work. I'll post back if working. Thanks for your help.

[7Jack]

Looks like NoScript working on MSNBC website without any problems. Thanks!

TIP: Always good to disable NoScript addon to check whether that one at fault or not.

Thank you for reporting back, glad you got it working.
