Toggle JavaScript: Swiftly Enable or Disable JavaScript
Extension stats

Extension summary
Toggle JavaScript provides a simple, easy-to-access browser button to enable or disable JavaScript globally.
It was built with web developers in mind, but is equally useful for anyone who wants to quickly enable/disable JavaScript without having to dig deep into Chrome's Settings panel.
Features:
- global JavaScript master switch
- reloads when toggling to ensure accurate rendering (optional since v1.3)
More Info:
There are similar extensions that enable or disable JavaScript per-domain, but I find this over-complicated so I decided to build a JavaScript "master switch".
Also, similar extensions can cause pages to be rendered inaccurately after disabling JavaScript. This extension uses an auto-reload technique to ensure that pages are always rendered correctly after switching JavaScript on or off.
I hope you enjoy using it - if you do, please tell your friends about it and help me out by giving it a positive review. Thanks!

- It does what it's supposed to.
- Works very well and is much easier than going to site permissions manually.
- Remembers previous web page choices for toggling JS.
- Toggle indicator icon is too small and not distinctive enough.
- Only globally enables and disables JS on all tabs; cannot set domains to block or allow.
- Does not function like the Chrome debugger's 'disable JavaScript' feature.
- Toggle icon size and visibility issues.
