com.toggleable.JavaScriptBlocker-6S8J5HV3H4

i just got the latest version of script blocker but the settings shows


You have to allow scripts from the host com.toggleable.JavaScriptBlocker-6S8J5HV3H4 in order for the settings page to function


what is com.toggleable.JavaScriptBlocker-6S8J5HV3H4?

off the top i think it is a prefs file since osx uses com. filenames for the prefs

i tried it as a url but urls must have a domain name on the end so hat cant work.

i tried disabling other blockers and that did not work and script blocker does not even block anything

i am removing the extension until you can fix it

JavaScript Blocker is a Safari extension that puts you in control of which scripts are allowed on any given website—similar to NoScript for Firefox

from http://javascript-blocker.toggleable.com/

So, it seems you have this safari extension which control all the stuff

I mean you have to remove that extension or configure it to permit other extensions do their job

i did that i disabled the other extensions.

it looks like you are trying to access the same databases that other sites use.

suggestion you may want to write a normal prefs file instead of using the web databases folder and if it is a host maybe connect via ip address instead.

You should file an issue on the bug tracker (about the conflict between the 2 extensions)
https://issues.adblockplus.org

it isnt a conflict between extensions because i disabled the other extensions and the script blocker still did not work.


fortunately i tried another mac and got it to working so i then remembered that it is standard for extensions to use the same database folder used by websites for their specific cookies.

i blocked that folder to prevent websites from placing cookies.

i think the extensions should use the library/prefs folder instead.
