unfortunately not...i feel the same pain. i've turned to personal donations to pick up the tab now because my ads are blocked thanks to adblock etc.

There was a thread around here sometime ago when someone found a javascript solution that would check to see exactly what youre looking for. Never tried it though so i dont know if its working or not.

you looking for something to make it so they cant disable javascript?

cause if so i have a mod that i use that if they disable javascript then they cant view the site and gives them a message telling them they need it turned on

yea but suppose they decline..they can still view the rest of the site, right?

and if they get blocked completely on denial of request, they would not go to the site at all.

Pretty much why i never bothered with it. If users don't want to view advertisements, then thats their choice and i can respect that.

I also understand the other side of the road as a webmaster myself wanting to get all the views i can, but i don't think forcing it on users is the best way to go about revenue making. Try to find some other creative methods instead.

that mod allow to restrict a browser in some way can "make the job"
ofc users can block ads but they have to understand that hosting is not free the time that one spend to put content etc
i suppose that based subscription is the way but that is other task

Still a bit harsh for a new site that is in desperate need of traffic. I mean this in general btw.
