Add-ons • Re: using Intercept & Modify HTTP Response

Pale Moon forum - Forum index [Unofficial] April 20, 2026
Source

I read that linked page and followed all the links you posted in them. I did not see any link to a javascript. I copied some of the suggested replacement codes in the Web Compatibility forum, but I do not know exactly how to match the source with the replacement. I got the impression that the help.js file is supposed to do something, but I do not know how to use it.

The JavaScript code I mentioned in my previous post isn’t used for managing filters, but for saving to disk the pages with HELP posts for the "Intercept & Modify HTTP Response" add-on.

The JavaScript code is displayed directly on the page - there is no "link to a javascript".

Important: this JavaScript code only works if your operating system is Windows.

Here is the JavaScript code:

With this JavaScript code, you need to create a new button using the add-on "Custom Buttons Enhanced 0.0.6" (after installing the add-on, place the JavaScript code in the "Code" TAB of the newly created button):

After creating this button, follow the instructions here ( https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=71&t=32889#p268028 ) to save the following HELP pages to disk:

You can't just copy "replacement codes" from the forum at random, because each filter is designed to solve a specific problem and can't be used as a universal workaround. However, if you’ve found filters on the forum for the page where you’re having issues, please post the URL of that specific page as well as the URLs of the forum posts containing the filters you found. This will help me understand the “how to match the source with the replacement” issue you’re referring to.
