Hello, I am doing challenges and all that, and I keep running on these javascript password scripts. Now I would like to ask how this script defines the password. And don't get me wrong, im not the kind of person who just wants to know the password, I really want to learn from this by seeing and understanding how it works.

Here is the script:

<script>

var numletter="0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"

function submitentry(){

verification=document.challenge.passwd.value

alert("searching.");
alert("searching..");
alert("searching...");

password = numletter.substring(11,12)
password = password + numletter.substring(18,19)
password = password + numletter.substring(23,24)
password = password + numletter.substring(16,17)
password = password + numletter.substring(24,25)
password = password + numletter.substring(1,4)

if(verification == password){
alert("Goed gedaan, gebruikt dit wachtwoord op de challenge pagina!");
}else{
alert("Wachtwoord test mislukt!");
}

}
</script>


I would be most thankful for any help and tips.

so you know unix commands but don�t know how to count? A substring?

bcij ...

I'm not a *nix guru or something, never said I was.

And I have been trying to count it all up and combine it all, yet it doesnt seem to work that way.

Sorry! I was right anyway! I was to damn tired to focus, but I get it now

isn�t it funny that 8 days after the problem has obviously been solved someone comes up with a wrong solution. What is it? You wanna make us think you�re dumb? You�ve been successfully ...

Save a copy of the web page to a file on your computer and view it through notepad.

why not just right click and veiw source?

or view menu...source, if some kewl has disabled rightclick (i don't see the point- you can always get what you want anyway)

It's just one way of doing it...and is easier to explain than going in to how to view source on all the damn frames if the site is set up that way, because all "view source" from the toolbar will do is give you the source that builds and tags the frames, not the actual source from each frame...*shrug* (assuming the right click is disabled)

I prefer to give the most generally useful advice that I can come up with quickly, rather than have to explain each little twist on the problem and it's "specific" solution...
