[RESOLVED] Noscript meta redirect is not blocked

Post by dixon »

Fx: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13
NS: 2.0.7

1. When I go to http://maps.google.com/ I get a notification about blocked meta redirect.
2. I temporary allow javascript for google.com and refresh page.
3. I get redirected to http://maps.google.com/m?oi=nojs

To fix that I needed to go to Firefox -> Preferences -> Content and make sure the "Enable Javascript" checkbox is checked. Then if I repeat the first two steps after revoking temporary permissions:

3. I still have a bar with notification about blocked meta redirect.
4. I temporary allow javascript for gstatic.com and refresh page.

After that I can use Google maps.

I've always have "Enable Javascript" unchecked and this never happened before, so it should have happened after one of the recent updates. Also can anyone else reproduce that?

NoScript requires you to have "Enable JavaScript" checked in order to properly work.

Ok, thanks for clarifying that.
