(since someone posted a kind of opposite, figured i'd post this ;-))

temp permitted sites, sometime lose permitted state?

i think that happens.

like i'll open a page & Temporarily Allow that page (domain) only.
& i'll open links from that page into new tabs,
& every so often, all of a sudden, i'll notice that the page (one of those new tabs opened) has lost it TA'd status.

i think that happens, sometimes.

last time it happened... maybe i did something like opened yet another new tab, & (don't really remember) but maybe it was that that new tab opened, TA'd (which i found odd), & then went back to the source page, which still showed TA'd, but then i refreshed it, & it no longer was (again, odd).

& i did not revoke permissions in any way (that i'm are).

i think that happens.

not really concerned, just pointing out, & i'll try to be more cognizant of just what might or might not be happening for the next time i run into it...

This is something that it's expected to happen:

1. On desktop, if NoScript Options>Revoke temporary permissions on NoScript updates, even if the browser is not restarted is checked and a NoScript update happens mid-session.
2. On Android, sometimes when the OS randomly kills Firefox's background process because of memory pressure and you don't even notice

Otherwise it would be unexpected...

Revoke temporary permissions on NoScript updates, even if the browser is not restarted
Deselected, so that's not it.

I'll keep my eyes open...


And forgot to mention, I'm also on Win7, running FF 115 ESR (& NoScript 13.5.9.906, at the moment).

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