[opensuse] How can a website influence KDE behaviour?
Hi, there is a website that makes heavy use of JavaScript (and other things???). When this site is open for a while in seamonkey, strange little things begin to happen on my desktop: - the last digit of the watch in the control bar doesn't diplay correct (it's like if half two numbers were displayed at the same time) - the "buttons" in the windows bar begin to flicker heavily When I close the window, the screen behaves normal again, immediately. It only happens on this particular site and I can reproduce it. How can a website influence things outside of the browser? How can I control that it cannot come "over the border" of it's own window? I cannot deactivate JavaScript, because the site wouldn't work without (Java and flash are deactivated, some things on the site are blocked using add block plus). For some reasons I want to keep this site window open (it helps me to be shown as "online" there). What can I do? Thanks for ideas!

What website?:
- the last digit of the watch in the control bar doesn't diplay correct (it's like if half two numbers were displayed at the same time)
- the "buttons" in the windows bar begin to flicker heavily

It seems that the upgrade solved the problem. I left open the browser on that site since yesterday after noon and the strange effects did not happen anymore. However, I also blocked additional scripts on that site, those from facebook and google. So I don't know, if it's the update or the restrictions on fb and ggl that made the problems disappear.... cheers Daniel -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Barcelona http://www.daniel-bauer.com room in Barcelona: https://www.airbnb.es/rooms/2416137 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

If you blocked previously some item, it is possible that some script failed and entered a loop because it did not find what it expected. -- Saludos/Cheers, Carlos E.R.

Thanks Carlos, I did not think about this and you are probably right. Sometimes I try to investigate what a script does, but - especially those I really don't want - are deliberately written in a manner that makes it hard to read and understand... and then I just block them...

Weird.
How can a website influence things outside of the browser? How can I control that it cannot come "over the border" of it's own window?
I don't see how it can, besides loading the machine so much that it can not cope. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
