Question about the uploading of certain files.
Posted: Thu Sep 18, 2014 6:56 am
Hello. I've got somewhat of a concern. It's probably nothing, but I wanted to ask anyway.
Does NoScript affect the uploading of certain files? Sorry if it sounds ambiguous, but I'll provide my example.
I'm currently applying to a bunch of jobs online and as you would expect, I have to upload my resume and other documents. Usually, you press some form of a 'browse' button and find you file, then click OK. Then it should attach after a brief uploading time (about 2 seconds). Normally, you can check if you've uploaded successfully if it shows the name of your uploaded file (eg. resume.docx).
However, I've only recently noticed that Noscript is forbidding something on these sites. When I do select the file I want to upload and click OK, the name of the file does indeed show up afterwards, but there didnt seem to be any uploading time. Of course these files are small and the upload time is minimal, but I'm not super tech savvy and I cant help but think NoScript may have stopped some script involved in uploading. Suffice it to say, I'm not 100% sure if my documents were actually uploaded.
Nowadays, I just 'allow all' before I do anything else but I'm not sure if it may have previously messed with my uploads.
