23/05/2009 21:06:58 Hi: That's good to know. Do many MW admin/sysops allow the use of Common.js through the settings switch $wgUseSiteJs? Some people seem to think that it is 'dangerous'. I don't know the capabilities of JavaScript but my IT experience would say that JavaScript cannot write to areas that it is not permitted to write to. Hence I would conclude that any changes I made using JavaScript on my sub-wiki would only be able to address my sub-wiki, not the top level one and not any other sub-wiki. That doesn't sound dangerous to the users of other wikis. Is this argument flawed?
Why do I want access to Common.js? Very simple application, I want to set my own Favicon and not use the one set at the top level. :-) ___________ Greg -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of K.
