Hi DOLLARBOB,

I understand that you would like to know more about the Javascript option in your Safari preferences. I'm happy to provide some help for this.

This option simply enables or disables the use of Javascript on the web. Even though the following article was written for the macOS, the information is still relevant to iOS as well. You can read more about that here:

Safari Security preferences - Apple Support


Enable JavaScript

Allow JavaScript, which websites use for buttons, forms, and other content. Some websites can’t work properly if you disable JavaScript.



Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Cheers!
