copied!<p>It seems using <code>javascript:</code> and <code>data:</code> URLs (directly in the address bar) are currently not allowed <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=527530#c6">as per this comment</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>FYI, I'm probably going to split this bug into multiple, short and longer term fixes. </p> <p>Short term: disallow pasting of javascript: URLs into the URL bar<br> Longer term: additionally require that bookmarklets be "whitelisted" in the Bookmark Manager before it can run JavaScript</p> </blockquote> <p>And <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=656433">this is the "bug"</a> that was resolved in the <a href="http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/6.0beta/releasenotes/buglist.html">latest version</a>. The <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=656433#c42">last comment</a> also states:</p> <blockquote> <p>javascript: is not actually ignored - they're run, but in an "empty" context that doesn't have any of the usual DOM methods you would expect, so most common uses (e.g. javascript:alert(1)) just throw (and thus are effectively ignored). javascript:1+1 works fine, though.</p> </blockquote> <p>Now:</p> <blockquote> <p>How do I fix this?</p> </blockquote> <p>You can't, you have to wait until they decided for a proper solution. As the comment said, bookmarklets will work, but must be explicitly allowed. If you just want to test code, use either <a href="http://getfirebug.com/">Firebug</a> or the new <a href="http://antennasoft.net/robcee/2011/06/08/scratchpad-canvas-demo/">Scratchpad</a> feature.</p>
