Quick Javascript Switcher

Quick way to enable/disable Javascript

What is Quick Javascript Switcher?

Quick Javascript Switcher is a Chrome extension that lets you manage the functionality of Javascript on different websites. It gives you the freedom to enable or disable Javascript on particular websites or subdomains. It is different from Chris Pederick's 'Web Developer' extension which only allows a global disablement. This extension, therefore, provides a more refined and selective control. It also has a customizable shortcut for increased usability.

Seemed great, suddenly stopped keeping track of which tab it's on with Chrome 124.0.6367.208 and there is no way to edit it manually (the list can be viewed in Extension Options, but there is no way to save changes made to the list). Even closing all other tabs, it picks a recently closed tab instead of the sole remaining tab that the Quick Javascript Switch button is clicked on. While the tab tracking problem may be a Chrome update introduced issue, the design decision not to be able to save changes in the Extension Options is problematic.

Works great and it's old enough to trust a little about not having malware.

検索エンジンのページでJavaを切って検索結果へ飛んでも、初回訪問時はJavaが有効になる。遷移先でJavaを切ると、次の訪問時には、Javaが無効化される。必ず１回はJavaが有効になるので、ちょっと微妙。なので★４。
