Evening -
The only way I could enable Javascript on a particular site was to start FF in Safe Mode.
About:config indicated Javscript enabled was 'true'
My Add-ons are:
Adblock Plus
Bluhell Firewall (I thought a likely suspect but when disabled, still couldn't get the site)
Close Other Tabs
Cool Preview
Copy Plain Text
DoNotTrackme
Duckduckgoplus
Noscript (enabled in Noscript, still couldn't get on the page)
Nuke Everything Enhanced
Tab Kit -Tab highlighter
Undo Close Tabs button
Are any of these known to block Javascript?
Thank you very much.
Enable Javscript, FF 26

NoScript looks like the most likely candidate to me, but you state that you allowed the site in NoScript.
Many web pages combine elements from different sites, so NoScript often blocks multiple sites on a single web page. Have you allowed them all?
Have you tried disabling all add-ons, then enabling them one by one until you find that JavaScript doesn't work anymore?

Hi uncle, my image shows how to set Noscript options. I also, if on a non bookmarked site, hover my cursor on the NOs. icon and select 'Temporarily allow all this page' .
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Re: Enable Javscript, FF 26
Thank you, George and Hans.
George, I've conformed my NoScript options with yours. Still can't open the file.
I had been leery of granting 'temporarily allow top-level sites' but did click it, and Bookmarks.
Hans:Yes, I had allowed all sites on that page. No luck.
In Whitelist, I noticed the site had only temporary permission. Re-entered the name. Sill only temporary permission in the Whitelist.
But, I then noticed It's an https site with an aspx extension.Suspect that is the problem, or part of it?
My options now are to run FF without Add-ons or open the file in IE.
Thank you much.

That the page uses https and has extension .aspx shouldn't be a problem in itself. Did you try my last suggestion?
Best wishes,

Re: Enable Javscript, FF 26
haven't yet had time to individually disable the add-ons. Is certainly top of list. Thanks.

Hans - Bluhell Firewall 2.0 appears to be my culprit.
Thanks to you and George for your help.

If your absence does not affect them, your presence didn't matter.

Re: Enable Javscript, FF 26
Difference between java and javascript? What's the difference between java and javascript? Is a java applet (opened via an html document or applet viewer) javascript. If you look at the code of javascript is it the same as Java? Does it follow exactly the same rules. Is the only difference the fact that it is executed through HTML ?

Re: Enable Javscript, FF 26
Welcome to Eileen's Lounge!
Java and JavaScript are not the same.
Java is a programming language, originally developed by Sun Microsystems, that can be used to create stand-alone applications. A Java application can run on your desktop. A Java-applet that runs in your browser is still a separate application.
JavaScript is a scripting language, originally developed by NetScape, that runs within your browser (Internet Explorer, Chrome, Firefox, ...).
There are some similarities between the syntax for Java and JavaScript, but source code written in Java will almost always have to be modified to work in JavaScript and vice versa.
