I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but anyway, i need a script surrogate, and i'm a completely noob at javascript, so some help would be nice.
Simply visiting a site that has scoredresearch as (i think) advertisement, gives a annoying 'popup' when javascript is disabled. Many dutch and belgium newspapers have this.
For example:
http://www.bndestem.nl/
http://www.gelderlander.nl/

Yeah, just that those things are a lot easier to zap with ABP. There is likely no global "catch-all" surrogate for zapping those. For your second link, try this
Code: Select all
for (let e of document.querySelectorAll('.dialog-no-script')){e.parentNode.removeChild(e);}

Thanks, that's something at least. I was under the impression script surrogates worked for target domains, not per-site that include a certain domain. Like you don't need one for every website that uses google-analytics either.
Anyway, scoredresearch has been bothering me for some time now, as you have to allow it for a easy way to get rid of the lay-over, but looking at the WoT and google reputation for that site, it's spreading male ware quite frequent.

Actually it's both, depending the sources pref. Documentation

Maybe play around with NoScript Options -> Trusted -> Show the NOSCRIPT... ?

No luck there.
Also, this surrogate fails when gelderlander.nl is allowed, but scorecardresearch.com is not, a situation i would prefer normally.

Both !@.gelderlander.nl and !.gelderlander.nl worked just fine as long as gelderlander.nl is blocked, but not when gelderlander.nl is allowed and b.scorecardresearch.com is still blocked.

Weird, with !@ and only gelderlander.nl allowed the massive overlay is gone here...

Try this?
Code: Select all
if (window.location.hostname.endsWith(".gelderlander.nl") || window.location.hostname == "gelderlander.nl"){window.addEventListener("load", function(){for (let e of document.querySelectorAll('.dialog-no-script')){e.parentNode.removeChild(e);}}, false);}
sources:
Note that gelderlander.nl *must* be allowed for this to run.

That works like a charm
Wonderfull.
I am thinking, what stops me from just using:
Code: Select all
window.addEventListener("load", function(){for (let e of document.querySelectorAll('.dialog-no-script')){e.parentNode.removeChild(e);}}, false);
A quick test shows this works on other websites also. I'm not expecting many problems since most websites dont include scoreresearch right?

I included the domain check because it's possible other sites which include scripts from scorecardresearch might have elements with class "dialog-no-script" that you actually *want* to see. You can remove it if you want, but be ready for false positives.
