Is it able to dynamically switch on/off javascript execution

[jiaojiao]

Hi All,

I am curious of whether it is able to dynamically switch on/off javascript execution after the browser is created.

I know there is a cefbrowsersetting called l_cefbrowsersettings.javascript = STATE_DISABLED.

However, I would like to dynamically switch js execution on/off of a browser. Is it possible in CEF3?

Is there any enhancement related to this? I found https://code.google.com/archive/p/chrom ... /issues/53 which is marked as duplicated. Don't know which issue it is duplicated to.

Thanks,
jiaojiao

According to http://magpcss.org/ceforum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=13462, there is no way of turning JavaScript on/off dynamically. However, is it really necessary? Can't you just close the browser and open a new instance with CreateBrowser?

There is now a "webkit.webprefs.javascript_enabled" preference that you can toggle with CefRequestContext::SetPreference. It may require a page reload before it takes effect.
