You are possibly more likely to get an answer in a Mozillazine forum

You say you are using Firefox 19 that is unsupported and insecure. I suggest you upgrade to the current Release which at this time is Firefox 23.0.1

In firefox 23.0.1 version I can not call jni jar function from javascript. In that version firefox changed some setting for javascript. How can I enable javascript in firefox 23.0.1.

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 from about:config or by installing an add-on.

about:config

  1. In the address bar, type "about:config" (with no quotes), and press Enter.
  2. Click "I'll be careful, I promise"
  3. In the search bar, search for "javascript.enabled" (with no quotes).
  4. 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 that lets you disable JavaScript, such as

  • No-Script (to disable JavaScript on a per page basis, as required)
  • QuickJava (to easily disable and enable JavaScript, automatic loading of images, and other content)

Thank you and I hope this helps!

Firefox has javscript enabled by default.

The changes relating to this in Firefox 23.0 were intended to protect users by making it more difficult to disable javascript. A I said before Firefox 19 is unsecure and not supported.

Waka_Flocka_Flame's answer above explained the procedure to disable or enable javascript that may be used, and still works in Firefox 23.

If when writing answers here you see the magicians hat and the formatting icons above then you have javascript enabled.
