With the migration to cookies, it was a matter of time, well – hours, until I opted to ensure that any users actually using the function were active, and not just leaving it open.
It’s a pretty easy hack, and any savvy-user can circumvent it quite easily if they know how to manage their cookies an...
Yet again, Rollator undergoes a major transition.
It now uses encrypted cookies for authentication, provides a ‘feedback’ interface to the primary administrative interface; features all of the modules you find on my front page, of a calendar, search, QuickURLs, Songs, and of course, the loggin...
I’m moving away from the elder GET/POST background that Rollator was founded upon for authentication – it’s vulnerable to various issues, and, well, I was lazy.
I’ve changed to cookie based authentication now, with the password stored as a salt with a 5 minute timeout, which is localized via $qbof...
It’s trivial, and lacking as compared to my JavaScript native bookmarklet, but here’s how you might accomplish the same thing in AppleScript, er, which uses JavaScript. Note that the slashes are merely to break the lines, you should remove them. ;) Note that it requires the GUI Scripting software...

The Language is similar to BASIC, yet at the same time, is just as comforta...
Using GD within PNG is much akin to writing a 3D graphics engine in GWBASIC – not only is it implausable, but it’s annoying and fairly fruitless.
I made a clock. You can see the source, as well. Forget where I snagged the logic. It doesn’t take to localization very kindly. ;)
