trusting called sites based upon calling site

Sometimes, there are sites which I would label as trusted when called from one site, but untrusted when called from another.

Currently there is no way to do this, so I end up temporarily o.k.ing them on each site I trust, but I can't mark them as generally untrusted because then NS won't tell me (unless I specificaly look,) that they exist and aren't being called (unless another called site is unknown.)

This an issue for anyone else?

Actually this can be easily done already, by using ABE:

Code: Select all

Site some.child-site.com
Allow from trusted.parent-site1.com trusted.parent-site2.com trusted.parent-site3.com
Deny

If I recall correctly, you have to add some.child-site.com to the whitelist too.

Sorry, since I haven't customized ABE yet, I forgot this is an option. Can this be added to http://noscript.net/faq#faqsec8?

That's correct, of course, since the whitelist act on script/embedding blocking, while ABE acts on HTTP traffic. Therefore if the site is not whitelisted, the script won't run anyway.

Probably a good idea.
