Java™ & JavaScript™
First of all, one has to understand that Java™ is not the same as JavaScript™. Java™ is a high-level programming language that was originally called OAK. OAK was largely unsuccessful and the name was changed and the Java™ language was modified to cater to the World Wide Web. Small java applications can be downloaded by Java™ -compatible web browsers.
JavaScript™ is a scripting language developed by Netscape® to design interactive sites. It may look like the Java™ language, but it is independent from the development of Java™. It is an open language, and you can use it without a license or buying a licensed version. JavaScript™ is ideal for designing websites with customized and interactive content.
How to disable JavaScript™?
To enable JavaScript™ in Firefox®, first of all you have to start Firefox® and click on the Options in the tools menu. Then click on the Content icon and check the box in order to enable JavaScript™. If you want to get access the Advanced JavaScript™ options, click the ‘Advanced’ button. Check the relevant boxes you and click ‘Ok’.
You should be aware that many sites these days make use of JavaScript™ in their sites for many things. If you cannot access the sites you usually frequently use then you may have to consider the option of reactivating your JavaScript™. If activating JavaScript™ leads to your Firefox® freezing or crashing, you may have to reinstall your Firefox® in such a case. This will help solve the problem of a freezing or crashing Firefox®.
