Large webpages are all the rage
-
Take note of the large size of the main page at http://www.deborahjeanepalfrey.com/
But there's not much content there, nor a lot of excessive font changes, so where does the size come from?
Line breaks.
3 917 547 extraneous line breaks, to be precise.
-
Fucking fuck.
It's bringing FFX and firebug to its knees.
-
According to FF's "View Source", the source for the page is 356,546 lines long.
And that number has wrapped around. It's actually far, far longer than that. In fact I froze FF when I scrolled to the middle, clicked, and pressed "right arrow".God Damn.
EDIT: Heh, and FF quotes the page size in kB because no-one working on FF ever expected to load a 4MB html page: 4,197.28 kB (4,298,011 bytes)
Thank god it's using unix line endings, the page would be 8MB with Windows' CRLF!

Not so fast, it's actually a repeated concoction of 11 CR's (0x0D) followed by one LF (0x0A). With lines of actual source occasionally interspersed.

That's insane, if she gets any visitors at all she must have one hell of a bandwidth bill.
How do you create such bad source, you'd have to hold return down for ages... how does it go unnoticed by anyone.
"wow George our site is taking a while to load" "yeah network must be busy".
Pity it hasn't got a 'designed by' on it

That's another thing, I actually found it in slashdot's firehose. I voted it up.

The page seems to go up and down. Try refreshing it.
I'm sure as heck not going to host a mirror :)

Well, now that it's been slashdotted, I think she's going to find out.
-
I have to admit it's a more effective defense against the godless right-click menace. It would take forever to steal this woman's content.
-
Google has a cache of some of the pages, including this one which is still a whopping 250k. Viewing the source is a bit easier but still took up my cpu 100% for over a minute until I crashed it.
-
It seems to have been fixed now. :(
-
It does, I wonder if somewhere, some coder is looking for a new job. There are still quite a few br tags at the bottom of the source.
-
Clearly a runaway script gone bezerk, but it's all fun until someone looses half a terabyte from their bandwidth quota.

Wow... Looks like the original issue is fixed, but the HTML is still ugly. Just look at this:
<font
color="black" face="VERDANA,ARIAL" size="1">© <i>2007<small><small><small><small>, </small></small></small></small></i></font><small><small><font
style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-transform: none;"
color="black" face="" size="2"><small><small><strong>Deborah Jeane Palfrey</strong></small></small></font></small></small><font
color="black" face="VERDANA,ARIAL" size="1"><i>. All rights reserved.</i></font>

Not just that, they've even got strange indentation :PPity it hasn't got a 'designed by' on it
I noticed this:

I think that company may be responsible - Their website has a similar HTML style (ie. UGLY) :P
