Usually I just want to disable it on one specific site, temporarily or permanently. In the addon settings there are options to white- and blacklist sites, but I wish there was a shortcut for this.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Riksoft, 7 years agoThe addon is good but, for Mozilla's fault, the addons have lost power on what they can do (not only this one).
As such, this addon does not enable/disable the javascript flag (about:config, javascript.enable=false) anymore, on the contrary it only BLOCK the execution, and there is a chasm between TOGGLING and BLOCKING.
Toggling JS off means that website can see you don't have JS and it doesn't waste time sending scripts. It also means that the website can adapt itself for browsers without JS so that you can have it working partially or even 100% even without JS.
On the contrary, blocking means the website knows nothing about your browser blocking JS, so:
- The band/time is wasted because it sends the JS script anyway
- the website doesn't work well or at all (try google image: empty page. With a real toggler it was 100% useable without JS).
Result: None of the JS toggler for FF 57+ can really act as a toggler and we have the above problems.
The problem is not of this extension or is a developer fault, the problem is Mozilla Firefox way (and Google Chrome is even worse). - Rated 4 out of 5by alkoro, 7 years agoThank you for a useful ff57+ addon.
On local opened html-files this addon do not work. JavaScript still enabled, but it disabled for online-pages. A simple static html-code WITHOUT 'javascript' BUT with 'noscript' tags can not work. Probably, javascript did not REALLY disable? - Rated 4 out of 5by meetDeveloper, 7 years agoI liked this and JavaScript control extension, but both had some problem, this extension does not have domain specific toggling of JavaScript and the JavaScript control though had that, but has default JavaScript is turn off on all pages. So i forked cod of JavaScript control and made another extension "Quick JS Switcher", If you need that functionality please feel free to test it out.

- Rated 4 out of 5by AcidCrash, 8 years agoHi nice addon.
Could you please add the more options to "auto-refresh page after toggle" and "default toggle state"? - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13248843, 8 years ago
