Tuesday saw much discussion on topic of potential abuse from CSS, JavaScript, fonts, etc. in home nodes and posts.

As a wetware interface to Super Search, I dug up a few related root-node posts from PM's brief history:

Javascript and other evil goodies  turnstep  August 21, 2000
font (ab)using?  misty  June 1, 2000
JavaScript allowed in posts!  mt2k  May 31, 2000
Home Node Image  vroom  May 16, 2000

Doubtless I missed some, but hey, ya get what ya pay for <grin>
    cheers,

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
