The meaning of the checkboxes is as follows:
— Images
Enables or disables the filtering of images.
— Windows
Enables or disables the filtering of windows, which are also commonly
known as pop-ups.
A pop-up is a display area, usually a small window, that suddenly pops
up in the foreground of the visual interface.
— Scripts
Enables or disables the filtering of Java scripts.
These are used on Web sites to do such things as automatically changing
a formatted date on a Web page, causing a linked-to page to appear
in a pop-up window, causing text or a graphic image to change during
a mouse rollover, etc.
— Layers
Enables or disables the filtering of layers.
Web pages are often made up of positioning layers in HTML code,
which may include a background as well as images or text added on
top.
Layers are designed to be used with JavaScript to create dynamic
pages.
— Frames
Enables or disables the filtering of frames.
Frames are used for independent control of multiple sections on a Web
page. This is achieved by building each section as a separate HTML
file and using one "master" HTML file to handle all sections.
When a user requests a Web page that uses frames, the address requested
is usually that of the master file.
— Embedded Objects
Enables or disables the filtering of embedded objects.
Embedded objects are objects such as images, videos, Java applets
that are created within another application and embedded into a document.
— Forms
Enables or disables the filtering of forms.
