ShiftZoom: Zoomify your oversize images

Filed under: Web 2.0 News — Dion Almaer at 11:15 am on Monday, June 30, 2008

ShiftZoom

ShiftZoom 1.0 is the latest tool from Christian Effenberger that allows you to add zoom and pan functionality to oversized images on your webpages. It uses unobtrusive javascript to keep your code clean. Requires no plugin/extension or any other external resource!

It works in all the major browsers - Mozilla Firefox 1.5+, Opera 9+, IE 6+ and Safari. Works also on older browsers supporting images & createElement & getElementById, else it’ll degrade and your visitors won’t notice a thing.

It is as simple to use as:

HTML:

  1.  
  2. <div><img onLoad=“shiftzoom.add(this);” width=“400″ height=“200″ …/></div>
  3.  

JSON Diff Released

Tom Robinson has built a useful utility, JSON Diff, which gives you a graphical look at the difference.

JSONDiff

Changed portions are displayed in yellow. Additions are displayed in green. Deletions are displayed in red.

The visualization is live itself, so you can move around the nodes using the triangles.

JavaScript Protocol Fuzzer

Filed under: Web 2.0 News — Dion Almaer at 11:07 am on Monday, June 30, 2008

Gareth Heyes has written a JavaScript protocol fuzzer which has the goal of “producing every variation of javascript execution from links.”

If you check out the demo you see all of the options available to fuzz:

Number of characters - This inserts between 1 and 10 characters in the chosen position

Character position - The string position of the characters chosen. E.g. if you choose “0″ then the “j” will be replaced or appended.

Replace character - Simply replaces the character rather than add characters to the position.

Url encode - Urlencodes the vector before outputting the link.

HTML hex entity encode - Instead of output the character, it uses the HTML hex entity instead.

HTML dec entity encode - Instead of output the character, it uses the HTML decimal entity instead.

Semi-colons - Adds a semi-colon if HTML entities are used.

Random zero fill - Adds a bunch of random zeros if entities are used.

Start from - Is the starting character to begin the fuzz. E.g “0″ is null

He has also found interesting results in various browsers such as: jav�ascript: working, meaning that this would work:

HTML:

  1.  
  2. <a href=“jav&#56325ascript:al&#56325ert(1)”>test</a>
  3.
