in reply to Believe me - trust no-one ;-)

I know it's not exactly Perl, but would it be worth someone putting how to turn off Javascript for Perlmonks on those browsers which support per-site options into a file somewhere? If Petruchio would put it onto his homepage where the exploit is demoed that'd probably be wonderous, we could see it work.

It's only now I have a quiet day at work I'm looking at how, and if, I can do it in Mozilla (Replaced IE as my main browser about three weeks back).

I'm unwilling to turn Javascript off in general though. Perlmonks is a site I use a lot, but I need Javascript to access the sites which are more directly part of my job.

    All right... way OT, but here it is. Straight from Mozilla:

    user_pref("capability.policy.nojs.sites", "http://perlmonks.org");

    Update:

    This does not work!

    It's documented at mozilla, but it is wrong, wrong, wrong! petruchio's node still shows me my cookie.
