[!WARNING] This event was a proposal in an early version of the specification. Do not rely on it.

The beforescriptexecute event is fired when a script is about to be executed. Cancelling the event prevents the script from executing.

It is a proprietary event specific to Gecko (Firefox).

Syntax

addEventListener("beforescriptexecute", (event) => { })
