Enable/Disable Javascript in Firefox 23

firefox, javascript

Solution

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/23 says:

You may still disable JavaScript by double clicking the "javascript.enabled" option in about:config.

Other choices are the noscript plugin, or next generation devtools.

Why this feature was removed?

See Bug 851702 and the linked ones, especially Get rid of options that kill our product ("checkboxes that kill").

Problem

How to enable/disable JavaScript in Firefox-23. I did check the release notes of Firefox-23 it says, `"Enable JavaScript" preference checkbox has been removed and user-set values will be reset to the default`. I have been using the enable/disable JavaScript feature to check if my developing website behaves as expected without JS. How do I disable JavaScript now. As of now am using web developer add-on, but, I don't want to use it as it fills most of my webpage. Looking for an alternative. Why this feature was removed.?
