[Dorset] HTML/PHP script
The site is up and running. I've copied the html code using ctrl-U facility on Firefox. There doesn't seem to be anything else untoward on it and no other scripts - that is except for spelling and other sloppy mistakes, besides a mail to link pointing at a non-existant mailbox! What they have to do is obtain control and ownership of the domain or abandon it hope it won't do too much harm and set up another one.

Is it a static website or is there php code running in the background? If there is dynamic code running in the background you will NOT capture this from firefox. What they have to do is obtain control and ownership of the domain or abandon it hope it won't do too much harm and set up another one. If they have paid for the domain then they should request full control of the domain, specifically the login to the registrar. They will then need new hosting and point the DNS entry to this new server. Looking at the code for all 5 pages of the site: - the word script appears only on the line I quoted with the link to the external site: ( script src=http: //maverick £££ monkey.com/widgets/.htaccess.php /script however this line appears on each page - the suffix .php appears only on that line and in connection with an enquiry form:- form action=form-processor.php method=post table trtd width=875 pYour Name:br input type=text size=20 name=name /p etc Nor could I see anything unusual in the .css page they are using. How could one tell if there is php code running in the background? Thanks again!

Re: [Dorset] HTML/PHP script
If page changes when viewed - are there differences if you 'log in' then it must be running some background code. There will be some code running behind that form - though it would be a quick job to re-create it so I wouldn't worry too much. Just to clarify - the php code runs on the server and when you make a 'request' for a page the server will execute the code and will send to you the result of that code.

Not only that, they lose credibility and most of all, respect. As a result, even law-abiding citizens begin to believe that its OK to rip off copyrighted material, simply because they think the bigger crooks are the media industry. Just because you're a conspiracy theorist doesn't mean they are not conspiring... Yes. But who are they conspiring against? Another study that was quoted in the BBC programme on the bill said that people who illegally download buy more music legally than those who don't. They are biting off their nose to spite their face. -- Terry Coles 64 bit computing with Kubuntu Linux -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Wed 2010-04-07 20:00 http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=2645413 Chat: http://www.mibbit.com/?server=irc.blitzed.orgchannel=%23dorset List info: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/dorset
