![]() I got this : |

![]() that's part of the page headers...determines server type and lots of other stuff. It isn't supposed to display normally since it sits in the head and not the body. |
Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Happy Hunting Grounds... |
![]() Yeah, so why did it display? That sure blew my mind... |

![]() or the Doc playing with stuff |
Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Happy Hunting Grounds... |
![]() Nope. It was caused by one of those 'Pop-ups'...Grrrrr! |
Maniac (V) Inmate From: Oblivion |
![]() And the pop-up wasn't caused by me. |

![]() Jezus Christ.... Shut the hell up |
Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: :morF |
![]() I second that thought |
Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Happy Hunting Grounds... |
![]() Well, today at work...no pop-ups...they are gone, apparently. And I did absolutely nothing to the computer at work. |

![]() There is no connection. Links to images can't possibly create code that appears *before the HTTP header*. In fact, they can't create code that appears *anywhere* on the page, especially since HTML is turned off. I guarantee you this is caused by something outside of the Asylum. |

![]() Slime: What about linking to a CGI script that delivers a random image? |
Lunatic (VI) Mad Scientist From: Massachusetts, USA |
![]() The CGI script can only return some data to the browser. The browser will try to interpret that data as an image. If it's unable to interpret it as an image, it will simple ignore the data and place a red X in place of the image. This data returned from the script can't do *anything* but be displayed as an image, unless the browser is written to allow it to do otherwise. No browsers that I know of are written like that (it would be an obvious security hole that the programmers would have to create on purpose). It's not something that could accidentally happen in the browser. (That would be like, "whoops, i was expecting a jpeg image, but you instead sent me HTML code which I executed... even though I was expecting an image.") If the script returned HTML, it would be ignored by the browser. |
Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Happy Hunting Grounds... |
![]() Yes, I understand...but then, why are the pop-ups gone? |
Lunatic (VI) Mad Scientist From: Massachusetts, USA |
![]() It's a possibility that there was something between the Asylum and your computer that was doing it. (Like a proxy.) I'm not sure how likely this is, though. |

![]() There weren't even any sigs (posts by InSiDeR) in the post WS sent InI the code for: |
Maniac (V) Mad Scientist From: Happy Hunting Grounds... |
![]() Yeah...what a relief. Still, it bugs me that soemthing like that was happening here, and now it's gone...I get the feeling, kinda like we were had...we know it happened, but don't know why or how. |

![]() muhuhahahaha... muhuhahah-- ...huh? what? |
