<h1>JAVASCRIPT ERROR!! RELOAD</h1>

WTV removed JS from mail and NG sigs back in '97. JS was removed from the GoTo box with the Summer '98 upgrades. But by nature, the WTV browser is enabled to use HTML and JS.... just as it is enabled to visit proprietary WTV URLs. What WTV was forced to do was selectively sabotage the browser to disable JS in functions like mail and NG sigs.... and most WTV URLs are active only on trusted pages. It's techniques like this that demonstrate that these capabilities are always there.... if one can bypass the mechanism that turns off the switch. Given the security vunerablities of the WTV browser, WTV will try to defeat these techniques as soon as they know about them.

Raw javascript in my signature... 

just a few pop-ups...lol..
here's a typical format....
put it in your sig. 

================================= 
<html><script>window.find('blah');</script></html> 
================================= 

Here's an example of what's been given back to some of us using the character sets... 

Save/Send works...
Object data works... 
No special extensions needed for some "things"... JS works in posts upon
forwarding... 
Codes activated by opening an email...
Codes activated by opening a post... 
Works on webpages...i.e. "info" in mails... AudioScopes are back....lol.. 
Audio in sigs are skip free and clear... 
Sigs load MUCH faster...
Fixes a certain JS bug...lol... 

<bgsound src=works 
as well too...lol 
Convert then embed HTML to JS for some "strange" stuff...lol..makes you say.."No Way!"... 
Haven't tried it, but I bet ""window.open""" works in the goto again... This is just the beginning... 
Too easy... BTW, forward your posts or mails to activate any JS... you can forward this post to see it work... 
SEEMS LIKE OLD TIMES!!!!! 
This has given me the Webtv I've always wanted...HAHAHA!!!!

Hey BASICII - 
Could you post this in my forum/archive? I would c-n-p it, but it would be killer if you could re-post it with a few more specific comments and reactions. Thanks...

scrolling back ground meta refresh tag slide wipe just about every thing works. just change out the first letter with a ASCII number instead of the letter only works through e.mail.. you wont see it when your writing a message just send it back to your self and watch. make sure if you use for example of embed change E to the ASICII ### AND move one step more sample if the scrolling back ground starts with
