Didn't actually have the chance to check the page source. See, when JS pops up one of those dialogs, none of the menus in Mozilla will take any mouseclicks until the dialog goes away. Nor did I have a chance to turn off JavaScript before the loop of dialogs went down to the point of endless repitition.

But frankly, that's not the point. I have JavaScript enabled because I use sites for which it is used in a non-destructive manner. I have a problem with people who think that it's kewl to be obnoxious or destructive. Especially at a site like PerlMonks, where in theory we're all here to share ideas and tips. Like I said in my originally message: you want to tell me having JS turned on is a bad idea? Fine, you don't have to lock me up in the process. No reasons but perhaps self-righteousness or self-importance to do things like this, to "strong-arm" people into changing.

I have no time or patience for people so obsessed with boosting their egos.
