It will be hard for a non-programmer to crack it. But as for a person who is familar with Javascript programming, cracking into it is not a problem, but it sure needs some time. I have once cracked into a javascript-secured site, because I'm lazy to scroll through the pages to look for it. The one which Jim recommended is quite a tough one to crack. I'm still trying to get into it.</p> <p>----------<br /> Elara - Webmasters' Guide<br /> <a href="http://elara.hypermart.net/" title="http://elara.hypermart.net/">http://elara.hypermart.net/</a></p> Mon, 31 May 1999 18:50:00 +0000 elara comment 1010012 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/html-css-and-javascript/whats-point-javascript-passwords-they-dont-do-any-good#comment-1010011 <p>John,</p> <p>If you get in let me know.
