CanvasBlock

By Andy Li Last update Apr 12, 2010 — Installed 442 times.

Script Summary: Block HTML5 canvas elements like FlashBlock.



Caution: Please do not use it in daily life, it is experimental. Blocking a canvas element may crash your browser(reason is discussed in script homepage). Moreover the HTML5 tags are part of the web and I don't think blocking canvas or any other tags brings any real benefit to you.

It is named CanvasBlock but it does not only block canvas tags, but also video and audio tags.

The blocked tags are replaced by a line of text, "Click to show xxxx". You may click on it to get back the blocked content.
