Major Complaint

That popup is created with javascript. On iOS, can you selectively disable js on a per-site basis, or is there an addon(like NoScript for firefox) that could be used? That does sound particular to iOS. On my android tablet, when I hit one of those quick links in the box, it takes me right to the thread.

Bingo!!!!!

OK lxskllr I disabled java script for Safari!

Pop up box.....history!

But I think that you are right that I really don't want to do that for the entire browsing experience but on a site by site basis.

Anyway: I repeat....... Bingo!

The problem is not wanting to go to the thread the problem is not being able to read the rest of the site.

I'm not sure whether I can disable java script on a per site basis.

I'm wandering around here.

I don't have a network to test Android on atm, but I don't think I got anything too bad with it.

For Javascript, you can turn it off and on in every browser I think, but having it off will break a lot of sites. SnusOn works pretty well without it, but some sites won't display anything. That's why it's better to control it selectively if possible. I use NoScript, and block everything by default for security purposes, but it can be frustrating to use for many people. Security isn't free, so I pay for it with a bit of time controlling what sites do on my computer. It also saves me time on occasion. The web's worst sites(tabloidy crap) use the most scripts, so I usually just don't partake when someone links to one of them. It's like cutting white bread from your diet :^D

Now that I know what is going on (thanks to you) I think I have to come to grips with the fact that I would rather put up with the annoyances that come with java script then do what you do (because you know how and are OK with doing it).

So!

My original post on this thread was indeed answered!

And I'll take that to the bank any day.

Thank You

For some reason I thought this thread was going to be about shipping costs.

OK trebil (I give up)......what the hell is going on here?

I go to your link: no more java script pop ups!

So before I bookmark the link I come back to the "original" Snuson link: no more java script pop ups here either!

And I still have java script enabled in my browser!

Mind cluing in the (me) software idiot?

P.S.

Are you telling me that because of this post DanF (by way of PP) has changed this web site?

For a simple, short and honest answer; "I have no idea Dan!"
