How to block hex div-id's

[ottootts]

Can anyone give me a tip on how to generically block divs with hexadecimal ids?
Like this one...

<div id="7be6ed316e0c0b2285a4b752ce5e6d617b46a850"> </div>

The number of hex digits is fixed.

No chance to check for the number of digits.
Eventually use the new syntax:
development-builds/new-css-property-filter-syntax

and post here the real example describing what to you want to hide.

Thanks for the help, I'll check that out.

When you ask for help, don't ignore my question:

Sorry I missed that.

Code: Select all

and what (where on the page) do you want to hide ?

however, you should report your issues on german sites to the dedicated (german easylist) forum:

I'll explain... I've been using the element hiding helper for months to hide the adverts, so I now have lots of custom filters with these hex ids. I can't give you a current example as I don't see any currently. I want to replace the many items with a generic filter.
Here are some of the current custom filters:

as I said it needs to find another workaround and don't hide those random divs (read also the easylist german section)
Are you talking about those side annoying ads on wetteronline site ?

[mapx]

you mean these ads ?

[ottootts]

Yes, those at the side and at the bottom.
They seem to use these hex ids only for full-width ads.

[mapx]

add these filters, tell me if it works for you

Code: Select all

Wow! That worked.

Is there any tutorial (or something similar) on how to create such complex filters. To me it looks like magic...

[mapx]

No, there aren't ... it's only experience with the filters, pages, reading the page code.
However, those exception filters (@@ filters) are whitelisting some elements which are checked by the code of the page. "They" are thinking the adblock is not enabled so they wont push anymore those ugly side ads (thinking the other main ads are displaying). It's a cat & mouse game.

[ottootts]

Well I'll try to understand how that works. Many thanks for your help.
