"Please turn on JavaScript in your browser"

Post by mipendance »

“Please turn on JavaScript in your browser.”
Chase bank has a new web site and when I try to access my account I now see that above message.
I cannot figure out how to accomplish that: I have allowed the site in Noscript (accepted as http://www.chase.co" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) and in,
Privacy, Exceptions-Cookies.

Chase's suggestion was to use Internet Explorer, which does allow access to my accounts, but my default browser is FF (47)

Thank you for your suggestions.

To turn on javascript in FF, enter about:config into the address bar and then search the config file for javascript.enabled and edit that line accordingly.

I went to http://www.chase.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (I assume that's what you meant) in FF47 with NoScript. After I allowed the site in NoScript it worked OK:

All links on the page are functional. Some subpages need further permissions in NoScript.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
Best wishes,
Hans

Hello, Hans -

Yes, I get that page--it is after I sign in that I get Please turn on...I have allowed the site with NoScript. Perhaps tellingly, when on that "Please turn on" screen there is no NoScript Options button available...

Oh, OK. I cannot test that, of course.
Best wishes,

Re: banking?

If it is any solace, Discover Bank, after several years using Firefox, will not now log me in.
Their technical support (?) says they prefer I use IE. I can log in using IE, but that requires extra steps to unlock/relock it.
I don't let IE access the internet.

I am looking for another bank. Anyone else having banking access problems with FF?

Apparently similar problems have popped up in the past - do a Google search for firefox javascript chase.com.

(Not that that helps you...)
Best wishes,
