Forums

Hopefully the issue is fixed soon. Too easy to direct people to sites with that issue at hand.

Yep, but you don't even need to do that. I can't see why anyone couldn't inject an external script and phish users without them leaving the forums. Of course I haven't looked into that but off the top of my head I can't see why that couldn't be done.

There is also the fact the 2k character limit (although effectively eaten up quickly by url encoding) is enough to do some nasty stuff. Could make it post and self propagate. Even bring the forums down in no time as well as do other nasty stuff.

Pretty sure they'll take it seriously as it's too easy to exploit with the link tag. I guess we're lucky Blasty is nice guy

Hiya Amaethwr, Ty for the coffee

Been a couple of updates today to address what Blasty discovered. I haven't checked to see how opera is going but the latest Linkify version is 3.1.8.90. Only published a short time ago.

It has improved link checking, the version I published before this one did take care of the issue but I have improved on it since then.

Just letting you know in case you want to update manually

Oh cool, good that the updates are issue free on Opera

It seems to work well on opera. I have made only one minor change to ensure things run as they should on both browsers.

There are some differences aside from the obvious speed dial. Opera has a few less browser APIs, but that hasn't mattered as the ones I use are supported by both browsers.

Opera has strict restrictions as to what you can and cant do within an extension, and also with code conventions, as does chrome. So no difference there.

I really couldn't have asked for it be any easier.

Hey Indy, sorry I don't have any coffee but I do have some questions. Not quite the same, I know, but

I saw in some thread you mentioned that you can blacklist people from seeing the IQ9 easter eggs, was wondering if I've been blacklisted because every time there's been an "event" after the first one it just loaded a blank thread background with nothing in it. Kinda thankful if so as I half pay attention to forums so when something like it pops up it tends to scare the heck out of me because I forget about it If not, that's alright and please don't add me, I'm just curious why it isn't showing for me.

Secondly, I know about typing IQ9 in the search bar while viewing a thread to see the latest video, but is there any way to see the ones before that? So far I've only seen the first 2 seconds of the first one and this latest one from tonight and want to see the ones between. Sorry for the essay and stay awesome :3

It's not the end that I fear with each breath, it's life that scares me to death

Update 3.1.8.92 fix.

My apologies to anyone that's having difficulty. Updating your extensions will sort it.
