   Here’s an obscure part of the page that will probably never see the light of day. Some might see this as spam, others might start filling the white space with quotations from Benjamin Franklin.
   However, this test is to see if the webmaster is escaping the value in the textarea and then unescaping the value on publish.

   The problem is malicious scripts that can do crazy things. At the same time, we have to sacrifice text formating because tags such as bold are lost along with italics. I’m not even going to think about <span style=”color;red”> highlighting some work arounds. </span>

   Overall, the site is very clean, loads fast, is free of pop-up advertising, doesn’t open another little ad window on body click. My favorite browser is Firefox and I don’t have it weighted down with the Flash plugin. Most of Flash is advertising anyway. If there is some media that I absolutely can’t live without seeing, I can open the page with Internet Explorer.
