Hackers Challenge My own challenge for you guys

[optykal 0]

This last part is really annoying me! All I see (or dont see) is dutch! I cant figure out how to get passed the warning! I passed challenge 2 very easily, haven't started the third challenge yet, might have to go onto that!I might try wget on this... see how that goes... damn warnings!

And still I say that this one is much easier than number two. Try thinking of WHY that warning is there.

This one requires very little actual php coding, a basic understanding of PHP is sufficient in this case.And.. REAAAAD........ ..... Can't you guys take a hint ?

Ahhh! It all becomes clear. I went back to the start and it all became much clearer! So so many wrong variables, how could I have missed it! Thanks for the great challenge! Now on to number 3!

LOL.

I would say you may not even need knoledge of PHP, aslong as you understand the underlying basics of the html POST tag ( and how it interacts with CGI possably)

Im still waiting fro the knolegde of how to telnet through the tor network to pop into my mind.

Maybe someone should post a spoiler here? i think if people have not worked it out by now, they never will.

I do not understand this sat all, explain more on the variables, all everyone is saying is, "change the variable", "notice the variable" come one! Explain about the variables, I don't even know what a variable is. Sorry if you think I am stupid, lol. Go a little more in depth, stop trying to hide some of the obvious clues.

Read some tutorials.Learn the basics of CGI programming, and how the HTML <POST> tag sends forms to cgi scripts.after you have studdied the basics of CGI (common Gateway Interface) its very simple.This is a challenge, not a tutorial.If you cant do it, then you cant pass the challenge.

Ok, I will read some tutorials, I am very experienced in HTML, but not so much in PHP besides phpBB or phpNuke. Do you reccomend any sites that have great tutorilas hat are good for begginers?If I don't complete this hacking challenge, it will drive me mad, lol, so I am going to try my best, and hopefuly, after reading tutorials, I will complete it!

[spoiler-alert]FFY, I don't make coding errors [/spoiler-alert]Anyways, I'd like to let you guys know I am kinda out of inspiration for hacking challenge number 5. Since it has to be more difficult than number 4, but may not be unsolveable.... Troublesome -------------------------------edit: seems I just forgot that I haven't made a number 4 yet..... Ahh well.... euh....$message = str_replace('4','3',$message);$message = str_replace('5','4',$message);return $message;-------------------------------edit #2: Wow, I just found out that I already started with a number 4.... guess I kinda forgot about it.

On a completey unreleated note...

FFY, I don't make coding errors

Yes you do. Nobody's code is perfect first time, every time. Even the greatest coders in the world run into problems.
