So my argument would be what if the attacker simply increased the size of the text field beyond the scope of the page's ability to display it? As for XSS - cross site scripting, well yes thats just nasty, but then again so is Javascript in the wrong hands! Their is no such thing as White-Hat hackers and Black-Hat hackers, their is only Nice people and Bad people in my humble opinion! :mrgreen:
