InformAction Forums

Hi,
I am a web developer. I wanted to have a fancy dropdown image for a selection list on my website. The user selects the country from where he is connecting to the site and I use that info to provide a localized version of the site to the user. I have a select box with opacity 0 and an image over it. When the user clicks on the dropdown image, the menu will be shown. Will this action be flagged by NoScript as clickjacking? Currently it is not being flagged. But I just want to be sure that this implementation will not cause any problems.

I'm not the expert (Giorgio is), but I'm pretty sure that this is fine, because it's not cross-site. Also, ClearClick is concerned with frames and plugins, whereas you're just using plain HTML div and select. You're not doing anything that perfectly ordinary JavaScript couldn't do (eg by putting an onClick event on the image and creating the dropdown that way), therefore ClearClick isn't likely to care.

Thanks for thinking to check compatibility .

Thanks for the quick reply.
