For instance, the perfectly valid <IMG SRC="NUL:"> used to cause a BSOD on Windows machines, and <IMG SRC="/dev/null"> throws some Unix browsers into a loop. <IMG SRC="/dev/mouse"> used to be a favourite when Mosaic on X was the most common platform -- it'd freeze the mouse cursor on certain setups. > Bad HTML usually contains inserted so-called Java Scripts or Java > Applets which run like executables to cause your computer to > crash. That's a neat trick, how's it done? JavaScript and Java have nothing to do with HTML. Perhaps you mean 'web pages' rather than HTML. Regards, Ben A L Jemmett.
