When I tried a simple java redirect in a modt window I didn't work, which would lead me to believe that scripting is disabled. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of StealthMode Sent: Monday, September 15, 2003 10:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlcoders] Stupid ?'s If the MOTD is html and Steam is java based?

I'm sure someone will find something. You can't just dump HTML parsing in the MOTD VGUI routines and expect it to be bug free. -EvilGrin -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Aaron Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2003 7:45 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlcoders] Stupid ?'s When I tried a simple java redirect in a modt window I didn't work, which would lead me to believe that scripting is disabled. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of StealthMode Sent: Monday, September 15, 2003 10:21 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlcoders] Stupid ?'s If the MOTD is html and Steam is java based?

I'm sure someone will find something. You can't just dump HTML parsing in the MOTD VGUI routines and expect it to be bug free. when was the last time you saw a pure HTML exploit in a modern browser? HTML is a data format, not a programming language. About the worst you could do is crash the browser (eg. the game), and even exploits of that level are rare. But why bother? Then you're keeping up an HL server no-one can join. -randomnine- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
