The option is actually called “Click to Play”, and it’s only enabled inside a hidden page—though we have to assume it’ll eventually make its way to the default Options page.

As well as enabling plug ins on demand turning off javascript globally makes you safer & really speeds up page loading & you can enable javascript on sites that need it with Opera & probably Firefox & Chrome as well ? I doubt IE 9 has any options , anyone Know if IE 9 can turn off javascript either globally or for individual sites ? |
