82256 - [RFE] Should be able to defeat page re-framers w/o turning off js

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 87460

(Core :: Layout: Images, Video, and HTML Frames, enhancement)

Description

[Anthony DeRobertis]

I'd like it if `Show Only This Frame' just resized the other frames 0
width/height as appropriate so that JavaScript code that attempts to re-frame
the window is fouled.

If I said `show only this frame' I meant it, and the web browser should see to
it that my wishes are respected, regardless of what anyone (e.g., the webmaster)
thinks.

over to HTML Frames.  I vote no.

Wouldn't that be more of a "maximise this frame" ?

Comment 3

[Anthony DeRobertis]

Well, you would be (quite literally) `Show[ing] Only This Frame'.

I think from a UI standpoint, the important point isn't the implementation
method used, but rather the effect achieved. Either way achieves showing only
that frame. One has the advantage of beating JavaScript re-framers.

I would like to see a "maximize this frame" and then given the option to
"restore frame" after that. Might be interesting to see a "maximise form" and
"restore form" too, but that belongs to another bug. I got this idea after using
Free Agent.
