Adblock browser UI elements

Post by Guest »

I've learned that AB+ can be used to block browser elements like the Javascript Console item from the tools menu: browser#menuitem(javascriptConsole). Where can I find the names of other menu items so I can block them as well?

I did not know that is possible to do with Adblock.

But Menu Editor -extension is pretty cool, easy to use and you don't have to know any item names. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/710/

Thanks for the suggestion. Although menueditor is the easy way to do it, I want to use adblock because 1) I want to learn a little more about how Firefox/Adblock Plus work and 2) I don't want another extension running. I only have two extensions running on my firefox.

Isn't there documentation somewhere that'll tell me the the names of the menuitems?

Not really, the most comprenhensive documetation still is
"reading the sourcecode"

However, you may want to have a look at the DOM Inspector,
a part of FF not installed by default.

Using the DOMI's "point and click inspection" feature, you should
be able to find what you are looking for.
