Funny perturbation effect... once Colin's comment is added to the web page, his script no longer works.. why?

Because his script posting becomes the first 'hit' in the offset() function, which does not contain the captcha string of words

He needs to change the posted script to something so that *his* "what is the" is not found, such as:

put URL "http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/46237"; into t
delete character 1 to offset("what is" && "the",t)+11 of t
put word 1 of t into whichword
set the itemDelimiter to quote
do "answer" && whichword && "word of" && quote & item 2 of t & quote

Of course, now his comment is there you need to make a further modification to get it to work,
so we can concatenate the preceding character in the html.


put URL "http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/46237"; into t
get offset(">" & "what is the",t) -- this avoids the hit on Colin's comment
delete character 1 to (IT+11) of t
put word 1 of t into whichword
set the itemDelimiter to quote
do "answer" && whichword && "word of" && quote & item 2 of t & quote
