Hello,
In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and protect users from unintentially damaging their Firefox, the option to disable Javascript was removed from the Firefox Options window.
However, the option to disable Javascript was not removed from Firefox entirely. You can still access it via about:config, or via an extension.
'''About:config'''
# In the address bar, type "about:config" (with no quotes), and press Enter.
# Click "I'll be careful, I promise"
# In the search bar, search for "javascript.enabled" (with no quotes).
# Right click the result named "javascript.enabled" and click "Toggle". Javascript is now disabled.
To Re-enable Javascript, repeat these steps.
'''Add-ons'''
You can alternatively install an add-on such as Noscript that lets you disable Javascript on a per page basis as required. [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/noscript/ No-Script]
Thank you and I hope this helps!
