Blocking and redirects
Posted: Wed Apr 01, 2009 11:09 pm
In general, I love NoScript. Thank you!
Sometimes, though, I have problems with sites with lots of redirects. Here's a scenario:
- I am on a page which is fully Whitelisted.
- I perform an action (search or submit, for instance) which appears to go through redirects.
- The action fails (a script was blocked somewhere).
- The resulting page (could be the starting page, or an error page) is fully Whitelisted.
Problem
--> How do I find the sites of the scripts that were blocked in the middle? There are no URLs in the footer icon menu to "temporarily allow".
Assumption
--> I'm not missing something obvious.
--> It's not possible for NoScript to understand when a redirects is server driven.
Suggestion
--> Can NoScript build and show a list of scripts (and sites) blocked for a few recent pages? A sub-menu in the footer icon space would be GREAT!

--> I don't know how to find the URLs which are being blocked.

--> I don't like the idea of allowing all of yahoo.com - I'd like to be able to allow just the required scripts for Yahoo login.
Thanks,
