NEW Message Board Macro for Cybertown

A brief chat on MSN with MauveCat and jdb_educator

MauveCat says:

There is a new CT macro: [HOME]MauveCat[/HOME] Just place the proper nickname between the Home codes and that is how it is used. It isn't in the macro list yet, but it does work. It makes a clean jump to a residents house

John aka jdb_educator says: how wonderful. that will keep it more personal

MauveCat says: it is for putting in messages and message board headers. e.g Party will be held at MauveCat 's house.

<a href="javascript:top.location.href='/home/MauveCat'" target="top">MauveCat</a>

MauveCat says: href="javascript: is blocked

it closes the message box and opens resident's house in the main window. See: http://www.cybertown.com/info/controlpanel/macros.html

John aka jdb_educator says: These macros will make it easier for our non-html type citizens to try their wings

MauveCat says: yup and put in code that is illegal otherwise

John aka jdb_educator says: lol This is a work around. Are those codes illegal because of hacking?

MauveCat says: yup href="javascript: allows people to put code in that uses javascript commands such as those that can find your password. Blocking it stops this but also stops neccessary commands like the clean jump code. Using macros can give access to these commands safely The href="javascript: is also used to change message background color, text etc. hence the macros to do that safely for the citizens.
