this is a long time user of my site that was blocked for accessing a harmless page, any ideas?

From my experience point of view - at the site which I have dealt with similar issues, the cases have been due to incompletely implemented Google Tapping / GTNextGen - (lack of quality in my post-installation work, that is) - this is what I've seen...

By far any chance have that *boost* installed recently? I cannot come to think of anything else at this point of time.

Just my 2 cents,

More than likely he tried to post some code with the script tag.

I was going to say that 9 times out of 10 when you get a script abuse from the forums they are posting code samples that have the javascript tag in them.

If they use the [code] tags will they be ok?

Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2004 9:45 am

No.

well it depends if you mean putting the script tag within the code tag or just putting the code without the script tag, because the latter is ok

Correct. Nuke filters the script tag, even w/o NukeSentinel. NukeSentinel simply offers a responsive action to the [mis]use of the script tag.

I don't understand. I am trying to post some code in a private code forum at my site and Sentinel keeps blocking me. I am using the forum code tags but I keep getting blocked.

Are you using a script tag? It doesn't matter if it's in a code block or not.

Sorry for my ignorance but I'm not sure what a script tag is. Embarassed

<s-c-r-i-p-t> w/o the dashes. No Javascript is allowed.
