278744 - Request for possibility to enable javascript for whitelisted RSS feeds only

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 86932

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, enhancement)

Description

[Jurgen de Wijs]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)
Build Identifier: Mozilla Thunderbird - Version 1.0 (20041206)

When you look at a message in the RSS feed reported under URL the message is 
shown with a big white square over the text. You can remove the square if you 
enable javascript in e-mail messages.
However, I prefer not to enable this because that will enable javascript in 
all my e-mail messages. This makes Thunderbird vulnerable.

I would therefore would like to suggest a "whitelist" feature so you can 
enable javascript ONLY for the RSS feeds listed in this "whitelist".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add the RSS feed specified under URL as a RSS news feed
2. Do not tick the "load article summary" box
3. Load articles and look at any

Actual Results:  
The article is displayed with a white square over the text.

Expected Results:  
Show the page without the square.

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
