What is this "script" you speak of



  • My mom told me to look at my university's website. So I did.

    And then the rest of the page is ignored because it's technically inside an iframe which won't be shown because browsers generally support iframes now.



  • I don't see the problem, seems like a standard university website to me.



  • It's one of those things Dilbert's mother would say to her son. You don't happen to be Dilbert, do you? Or his little brother?



  • You seriously have a 50-year-old Dance Department?

    Also, gotta love the resulting URLs:

    http://www4.uwm.edu/%22http:////www5.uwm.edu//news//files...--
    http://www4.uwm.edu/...--
    http://www4.uwm.edu/%22http:////www5.uwm.edu//news//fil...--

    Also also: "Autism in another language inspires alumna" - my inner parser has been broken by this sentence.

    Well OK, but she didn't [i]insist[/i] that you use lynx, did she?

    He is lumpy and potato shaped, which is how Scott Adams described Dilbert and engineers in general. Evidence is mounting...

    People didn't just start dancing recently. They've been doing it for a while. Maybe even way longer than 50 years.



  • @Website said:

    UWM physicist researches ‘new gravity’

    @article said:

    nothing about ‘new gravity’, whatever that is, just something about distant stars and general relativity

     

     The phrase 'new gravity' isn't actually used in the article at all.

    So they have creative writing students doing headline things.  I don't see the issue as that is what newspapers and news websites have always done (except the students part I guess).

    I know, it just struck me as odd that an university would house such a thing, let alone for 50 years. But it seems that you can, actually, <a href="http://www.temple.edu/gradbulletin/boyer/dance_phd.htm>get a PhD in dancing</a>. Huh.</p>

    That's why they call me doctor *band hit, lights darken, disco ball† drops* DANCE.

    † I enrolled in the dance department when it first opened and received my disco doctorate 8 years later.

    I'm still trying to figure out how you managed to post code that not only doesn't wrap but also refuses to scroll horizontally.

    Closed, could not reproduce.



  • Everyone else missed this:
    @Ben L. said:

    <!--211 JSON parsing failure at character 1:'<' in <!-- AddThis Button Begin -->

    So there is an error in the javascript, which is intended to display the iframe I'd guess. So nothing happens.

    But it's a serverside error. And it passes the context through to html without escaping it.

    What version of Firefox?

    Adding a white-space property of pre-wrap or pre-line lets it wrap, but white-space:pre doesn't.
