I clicked a checkbox in an alert panel and broke a website
Hello, I was using a website that has a list editor with a delete button. Everytime I clicked the delete button, the website would ask me to confirm with an alert. There was a checkbox below from Firefox that that sounded like it would make the website stop asking me to confirm every single time, so I clicked it. Now, the delete button just doesn't work! I think Firefox is just blocking the button from doing anything at all. I need that to start working again but I don't know how to find where that setting might be stored. Firefox doesn't show individual cookies and I'm afraid to delete all the website's cookies.
Is there a direct solution to this problem? Thanks.
FYI the website is justinguitar.com, and the list editor is part of the Practice tool.

I think I know the checkbox you mean -- is it this one:
That is a JavaScript confirm dialog, and if you don't click OK, the script that is requiring the confirmation can't continue. So that's why it's broken.
I think your choice to disable JavaScript confirm/prompt/alert dialogs is remembered until the next time you do a normal quit/restart of Firefox. Then the site can start showing JavaScript dialogs again.
(If it is stored somewhere that you could clear in a different way, I can't remember where that would be.)
By the way, if it's faster, you can tap the space bar to "click" OK in those dialogs, or to cancel, press either Tab or right arrow then space bar.
Yes, closing (Firefox -> Quit Firefox) and restarting Firefox should fix this.
