Hack This Site Forum

Hello Everyone..

Firstly, sorry to post in here...for some reason I couldn't post in the actual basic mission forum where this question rightly belongs.

Secondly..I cant say in great detail what my question involves as it includes too many spoilers! but basically I solved the problem and completed the mission. However, because I am new to all this I am not actually sure how I did it!!. By this I mean that the method I used to obtain the password threw up an unexpected result which I hadn't counted on..

Would anybody like to go through this with me so that I can understand what I did right!!

Cheers

Hello.

This is my first post as well

However, I was wondering the same question. I was having trouble figuring out Basic mission 4 and I "stumbled" upon the answer, is there any way to gain knowledge on why exactly that method works? I tried figuring it out on my own but I have very little experience with HTML. I would be greatful if someone could fill me in on the details of why and how it works.

(Also tried the w3schools website and am still unable to wrap my head around the concept)
