Show hidden content

Post by balutbj »

Hi,
Can I show originally hidden elements on some webpage using AdBlock?

Thanks.

You can disable ABP on that site or (in Firefox) page, and then refresh; however, even in theory the most that could be done without a refresh is the undoing of element-hiding rules, because ordinary blocking rules prevent content from even being loaded, and a refresh after disabling ABP is the only way to get that content to load.

No, it will not help.

Example:

Code: Select all

<html>
<head>
<title>Test page</title>
</head>
<body>
Normal text
<div>normal div</div>
<div style="display: none">defautly (from webmaster) hidden content for show</div>
</body>
</html>

Sorry, I thought you meant "Can I show the content originally hidden by ABP?"

The answer (on Firefox) is Stylish; on Chrome you may try hacking around with Custom.css
