NoScript blocking chrome:// (can't add exception)

Post by knikk »

Hi,

NoScript blocks JavaScript in chrome://-URIs, but adding an exception doesn't work. When I click on on "Allow chrome:" in the menu the page will reload, but chrome: will be forbidden again. When I try to add it in the Options window the Allow will be greyed out.

I want to allow it for epubreader extensions, which appears to have some tiny glitches because of it.

Sorry that this one hasn't been answered in more than a week. I'll flag it for Giorgio's personal attention.

Thank you for your patience.

JavaScript execution on chrome: URIs cannot be disabled anyway because they're privileged, so the real bug here is them appearing to be allowable.
I'll try to look into the epubreader-specific issue as soon as possible, anyway.

Looks like this one is still reproducible.

I get the red circle when I open a document with epubreader. Clicking "allow chrome:" makes it go away for a second, but then it quickly comes back.

Text says "Scripts Partially Allowed, 1/2 (file://) | <SCRIPT>: 2 | <OBJECT>: 0

Seemingly it should not be affecting anything whether able to be "allowed" or if it were grayed out?

I have exactly the same problem described above.

NoScript blocks JavaScript in chrome://-URIs, but adding an exception doesn't work. When I click on on "Allow chrome:" in the menu the page will reload, but chrome: will be forbidden again. When I try to add it in the Options window the Allow will be greyed out (and can not be edited). I am using the latest noscript version and firefox 14.01

And what chrome:// URI are you running up against?

If you disable NoScript & restart, does the chrome:// problem persist?
