Maybe a week/ two weeks ago, I started having a problem with a site not displaying properly in FireFox. (XP sp3, fully patched. FireFox 3.6.12)

Accessing "www.baltimoreravens.com", the main page usually has team-news headlines that scroll horizontally, with a pause where you can click to read more, or watch the video to which it refers. Recently, the site stopped displaying this scroller; it also will not display video clips if I click on them manually.

The site has a message block that says it requires Macromedia Flash Player 9, which I dutifully deinstalled and reinstalled adobe Flash Player 10.1.85.3, which is the latest version. I had problems with IE as well, but eventually found that I had to install the player again individually for IE, and now the site works there. I also installed Google Chrome and the site works there (Flash cannot be deinstalled from Chrome).

I disabled NoScript and restarted FireFox - now the site works fine. I deinstalled and reinstalled NoScript, but it kills the <whatever> in the site. I can't figure out how to make it work with NoScript still enabled.

I'd prefer to keep NoScript installed and enabled, because I think it does a valuable service, but this is one of my most viewed sites. Can you tell me how to make these two get along?


Thanks,

NS blocks (noscript.inclusionTypeChecking) scripts served with the wrong content-type. Here it's http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/jq ... 3.2.min.js (text/x-c), there will be a message in the error console.

You can add it to the exceptions list:
noscript.inclusionTypeChecking.exceptions=jqueryjs.googlecode.com

Thanks, al_9x!

I looked through the options and can't determine where to paste your suggestion. In the white list? Would you be so kind as to walk me through the path?

http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopi ... 163#p20163 has directions, since the exceptions pref already has a default value, you append the new entry separated by a space ("https://scache.vzw.com/ jqueryjs.googlecode.com")

YOU ARE THE MAN !!!!

Many thanks, al_9x!

I plugged it in just as you directed, and BOOM: it works like a champ.

May all your dreams come true.

That is, assuming you are a man...

No offense intended otherwise. You are the guru! You are the ONE-WHO-KNOWS!

Yer the best!

Ah, so that's how you knew it. You understand what this rigamarole means .
