How to Turn on Javascript in Mozilla Firefox

Mozilla Firefox is a popular alternative to Microsoft Internet Explorer for internet browsing. Firefox is an open source program and is, therefore, easier to customize. It is still compatible with modern web pages, including those running JavaScript applications. The security features on Mozilla Firefox are generally easier to operate, and since JavaScript can be used maliciously, you can run into situations where disabling this capability becomes necessary. In Firefox, enabling and disabling JavaScript has been made very easy.
