- Rated 5 out of 5by mtness, 6 years agoFinally a plugin to restore some pre-quantum functionality.
Thank you! - Rated 5 out of 5by Wouter Verhelst, 6 years agoawesome. Does just what it needs to do and nothing more.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Robert Thompson, 6 years agoSimilar to Quick Javascript Switcher for Chrome. Very elegant in its design and function. Open source! Works beautifully.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Gal Anonim, 6 years agoVery very useful, can't believe Firefox is missing such a basic feature as JavaScript disable button.
- Rated 5 out of 5by sBRB4Q7, 7 years agoA decent competitor and alternative to noscript. However it causes layout issues on some sites, like duckduckgo and startpage. E.g the text "The search engine that doesn't track you. Learn more" appears twice. This is with JS enabled. It's also a consistent issue, but if you refresh it disappears. Haven't found other websites with similar issues, I'm sure there are more.
Edit: Might the "google goes blank whenever a link is opened" issue on github be related to this? I don't know
And whenever you click on a link in duckduckgo it says "You are being redirected to the non-javascript version of the site". Excuse me, but I have it enabled! It doesn't actually do it, it's just a message.Developer response
posted 6 years agoHi there!
Thanks for your review. The bug you've described was indeed a known, open bug.
However, I've published a patch release today (v2.2.3), so your local installation should hopefully update itself soon.
In the newest release the bug has been fixed. Please let me know in case you still would have this or any other issues with this web extension.
Thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14077214, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14031443, 7 years agoA brilliant add-on, simple to setup and use, and did exactly what I was hoping it to do: automatically disable JavaScript on sites unless the domain I specify is listed (called whitelist in this case). You can also allow subdomains per each listed domain so it will work across an entire site. Alternatively you can set the default behavior to work vice versa and always allow JavaScript to work on all sites unless a domain you specify is listed (called a blacklist in this case). Some nitpicks I have (by which I think these functions or abilities would be nice to have but don't hinder functionality currently) are:
Ability to backup and import domain lists within the options.
Support for containers.
An option for a "grey list", or ability to allow JS for the current session/tab/domain but disable again when the browser is closed without need to modify the white/blacklist.
Overall, a great Firefox extension, I highly recommend giving it a try. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13955540, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13877494, 7 years agoSimple, great icons, just does what it has to do.
The options are nice as well (although I don't use them) but having a nice looking icon where people know if JS is on or off is simply great! Merci! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13853249, 7 years ago

posted 7 years agoSalut Paul et merci pour votre review!
I actually tried to publish the web extension in the Edge Store (even bought a developer license for this) but the Edge Store is currently not adding any new web extensions to their Store.
They currently have only 98 extensions for Edge ( https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/collections/edgeextensions/pc ) - Firefox for example, has around 9'000.
I've submitted my request to publish the web extension in the Edge Store but can't do more.
However, I'll publish the web extension there as soon as I'm able to!
Thanks for your understanding!Developer response
