cool, sounds like having umatrix or NoScript blocking javascript is still sufficient. Need to make sure <script> is blocked as well as the external JS. https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_scripts.asp ciao, der.hans
No, HTML5 is a markup at the end of the day. Comparing JS and HTML, is like comparing apples to oranges. All HTML5 does is include new tags to use when building a web app for you or search engines to use: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_intro.asp. It doesn't at all handle any logic like JS would, if that's what you are asking. Same can almost go for CSS. It's a description language, it doesn't handle any logic (except for select queries). However, CSS is starting to implement variables, but you can only use those for *attributes*. Not write a fully functional app with CSS alone.

As I understand it, HTML5 is script-like to lesson use of javascript. Does that mean plain HTML ( no javascript ) is sufficient to exploit browsers in light of #meltdown and #spectre ? https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2018/01/03/mitigations- landing-new-class-timing-attack/ https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/Home/chromium-security/ssca What about CSS? ciao, der.hans -- # https://www.LuftHans.com https://www.PhxLinux.org # As we enjoy great Advantages from the # Inventions of others we should be glad of an # Opportunity to serve others by any Invention of ours, # and this we should do freely and generously. # -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), on his refusal to patent his inventions. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - [email protected] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
