re javacript:
what i would like to use, is a javascript-capable web browser which,
when rendering a document, only loads those programs i choose to
enable.
if the client could also construct a sort of hypothetical pstree,
depicting what-{would,could}-call-what, something like that might be
cool. or so i speculate.
I doubt this is possible. Without being able to see what happens on the server side, JavaScript is quite opaque.
re images: on firefox's Preferences > Content menu, for example, there is a 'load images automatically' checkbox. although one might expect the other side of that coin to be 'load images selectively (at my per-image discretion)', it is not. instead, afaict, firefox only toggles from 'load all images' to 'kill them with fire'. i find no option to include on the rendered page links to images. i find its absence in firefox conspicuous (and particularly so, given its presence in what are called text-only browsers).
There are add-ons for that, such as: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/imglikeopera/ Martijn. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
