The following list is taken from "Ta'leemul Haq":
The following is taken from "Bahishti Zewar (Heavenly Ornaments)":Things Not Allowed During The Khutbah
- Talking.
- Offering Sunnah and Nafl Salah.
- Eating.
- Drinking.
- To reply to any talk.
- Reciting the Qur'an etc.
All those things which disturb the Khutbah become Makruh from the minute the Imam prepares to deliver the Khutbah.
The following is an excerpt from a book with the name of "Sunnats":Injuctions for Juma Sermon
1 -- It is highly execrable to offer any prayer or talk when Khutba is being delivered. But offering postponed prayer is allowed and essential.
2-- When the Khutba has begun it is essential for all present to listen it whether they are sitting near the Imam or at some distance. It his highly execrable to do anything which obstructs the hearing of Khutba. To eat, drink, talk, walk, greet, respond to greeting, to recite any prayer or to explain any religious problem during Khutba are all prohibited. It is, however, permissible for the deliverer of the Khutba to explain some religious problem during the Khutba.
3-- If the Khutba begins while one is offering Sunna or Nafl prayer, then the Sunna should be completed and the Nafl should be concluded after two Raka'ats only.
4-- It is highly execrable for the Imam or the followers to pray with raised hands during the sitting of the Imam between the two Khutbas but praying within oneself is permissible provided no words are spoken neither loudly nor in a low voice. To recite items of farewell or seperation in the Khutba of the last Friday of Ramadan is not reported from the Holy Prophetor his Companions.
5-- It is permissible to read the Khutba from a book.
6-- It is permissible for the listeners to recite Darood Sharif within themselves on hearing the holy names of the Prophetoccurring in the Khutba.
Sunnahs of Jumu'ah (Friday)
S.8 One should listen attentively to the Khutbah even if one does not understand. One should not speak or even warn another to keep quiet while the Khutbah is in progress.
S.9 When Nabi'sname is mentioned in the Khutbah, it is ja'iz (permissible) to recite Durud in the heart only (without the movement of the lips or tounge).
S.10 Between the two Khutbahs one can make Du'a. It is permissible to make Du'a without raising the hands or moving the lips (i.e. Du'a should be made in the heart only without the movement of the lips or the tounge).

What about when the kateeb says the Prophet's (saw) name?
Have Respect For The Haramain
Live Broadcast Of The Salaah At The Grand Mosques In Makkah & Madinah
Please Recite:
Surah Yaseen (22)
Surah Kahf On Fridays (15 Juz)
Surah Dukhan On The Night Of Friday (25 Juz)
Surah Tabarak/Mulk - Every Night (29 Juz)
Surah Sajdah - Every Night (21 Juz)


Just a small clarification. The following point:
It is only regarding when the verse يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا is recited. Hence, the rest of the khutba the person should remain silent and listen attentively.S.9 When Nabi's name is mentioned in the Khutbah, it is ja'iz (permissible) to recite Durud in the heart only (without the movement of the lips or tounge).
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.

But Hadiths found in Bukhari & Muslim r showing totally opposite position what was mentioned above.
Bukhari: Volume 2, Book 21, Number 267:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah :
While delivering a sermon, Allah's Apostle said, "If anyone of you comes while the Imam is delivering the sermon or has come out for it, he should offer a two Rakat prayer."
MUSLIM
Chapter 159 : OBSERVING OF TWO RAKIAHS AS A SALUTATION OF THE MOSQUE WHILE THE IMAM IS DELIVERING (THE SERMON)
Muslim: Book 4, Number 1901:
Jabir b. 'Abdullah said that the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) delivered the sermon and said: When any one of you comes for the Friday (prayer) and the Imam comes out (from his apartment), (even then) should observe two rak'ahs (of prayer).
Muslim: Book 4, Number 1903:
Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported: Sulaik Ghatafani came on Friday when the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) was delivering the sermon. He (Sulaik) sat down. He (the Holy Prophet) said to him: 0 Sulaik I stand and observe two rak'ahs and make them short, and then said: When any one of you comes on Friday, while the Imam delivers the sermon, he should observe two rak'ahs and should make them short.
What to do when masala goes against Authentic hadiths?
