Windos XP sp3
Firefox 3.6.12
NoScript 2.0.5.1

All was fine with Noscript, but recently I found that NoScript casue bad result in a certain site.
Symptoms are below.

1. Pressing button "Show" right to the small title "Refine results" dose not change the screen.

2. Sort buttons (Document title, Authors,Date, Source Titles, Citations) are covered by other menu so I can't press the buttons.


In the Error Console menu in FF, I found the following logs.
Error: document.getElementById("clusterData") is null
Source File: http://www.scopus.com/jso/resultsMain.j ... SC10-1.5.0
Line: 66
More detailed error message is here.
{var clusteringUrl="/results/clusteringshowhide.url";document.getElementById("refineHeader").className='padding5 margin clearfix';if(showHideState=='Show'){document.getElementById("clusterData").className="displayBlock";if(document.getElementById("clusterData").lang=="DocResults"){updateNavigatorSizes();}
My Solution
1.disabling addons - NoScipt & TabMixPlus
2.Visit scopus and check the result screen.
3.If result screen is fixed, enabling NoScipt & TabMixPlus
My solution sometimes works well, but I want to remove the root of troubles.

The problem is really due to NoScript?
Do I have to report this error to Scopus?
Can this problem be solved by improving NoScript?

Thank you for careful reading.

I was tested what you recommanded for several days.

The symtoms was appeared again today.

In this time, I can point one suspicious function,
"Sanitize cross-site suspicious reusets"
On-off affects the symptom.
(turning-on makes the result worse immediately, but turning-off can't make the symtom better immediately)

Of course, I have added Scopus into Whitelist.

Furthermore, I also added Scopus into "Anti-XSS Protection Fxceptions" as below.
^http://[\w\-\.]*www[\w\-\.]*\.scopus.com[\/\?]
It didn't helpful.

Please help me.

Could you look into your Tools|Error Console window for "Messages" (white/blue) starting with [NoScript XSS] and show me their content?
Thanks!
