h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I was wondering if you could use VBScript in your personal space, or is that not allowed because it is a script the same as JavaScript

Any tags are automatically commented out by the server.

You also can't use <A HREF="javascript:...... or <LINK HREF="javascript:.... nor the vbscript: in links.

You can't even get away with the ONCLICK attribute.

However, I've just got to work (oncontextselect is right-click, or on macs, ctrl-click) - so you can use some of the obscure ones, though I don't advise it.

When including scripts, I put them in a link to another server (In this case, goecities) and run them from there, such as:
<./>http://www.geocities.com/bobthebluefish/scriptit.htm?alert$L$QBoo!$Q$R</.>

if you use then it remembers it until another font overrides that, including between windows and webpages.
Just noticed that, might be a bug with IE, dont know, but i definitely wouldn't suggest useing it.

Sorry, perhaps I should have said to include a tag....

And Sorry sorry, it was oncontextmenu, which should probably be in lowercase

But on a better note, include
; return false
at the end of the script to supress the actual menu that appears.

Others are ondblclick, onblur, onfocus, onscroll (for text-box or overflow:auto style), onmousedown, onmouseup, onmouseover and onmouseout, (or onmouseenter and onmouseleave), onmousemove

There are others, which work with special items, such as the window, document, body objects, and also form fields.

The full code I used was:

something click me something else

so basically anything but onclick

I've gone through seeing which work:

Out of the list above, these work:
ONDBLCLICK="alert()" ONBLUR="alert()" ONFOCUS="alert()" ONSCROLL="alert()" ONMOUSEUP="alert()" ONMOUSEENTER="alert()" ONMOUSELEAVE="alert()" ONMOUSEMOVE="alert()" ONCONTEXTMENU="alert()"

The others are removed by the server, and I don't advise using mouseenter or mouseleave, as these only work with IE 5&6.

Obviously, you can't use the ones for window, document or body.

Look at the test page... A2260711 (<./>test2260711</.&gt

so onmouseup is like onclick, except when they let go, that would work, i would have thought the server sould have just denied any javascript events

They probably will now, as I've pointed out some of them work

this conversation is sure to magically disappear with moderation messages in its place before long

Just what do you want to do with all this scripting power anyway...?

Nothing really, just curious, Why did i create a task manager when the school disabled ours? Why did i make an encryption program when i've got nothing to hide? Just to amuse myself and see if i could probably

Ooops, that should be

I suppose this is off topic, but who cares
You can have my encryption program if you want, its totally secure and wont (hopefully) destroy files when you try to decrypt them witht the wrong password. if you have xp pro though you can probably already encrypt

Destorys files when someone types the wrond password

Password> _
Wibble?

That is the wrong password. This computer will self destruct.....

i have fixed that bug now tho, it doesn't do it anymore

Thank goodness, who knows what would happen if m1cr*$oft got hold of _that_ idea....

I decided what to do with my scripting power, i created a full search form on my page that opens in a new page, it even keeps the users skin choice. take a look if you want

almost as bad as my personal space....

yours isn't bad at all, and whats so bad about mine (its not that terible, is it?)
