Cardiff fans hack the official Swansea website

Well done to whoever did this!

That's not hacking the site, that's using a toolbar called firebug. Anyone can do it - I just 'hacked this site'





WE LOVE CARDIFF CITY/THE CAPITOL OF WALES

Its reported online that its been hacked. It was actually hacked. Pointless to be honest as its so easy to revert the changes.

Hats off!!! Proper banter

Surely it always that?

No actual evidence points to that, it's just a screen shot. It's not been hacked but fire bugged.

There's no evidence to say it has been "fire bugged" either.

How has it been edited using Firebug? They are using Google Chrome FFS. If anything, its been edited with inspect element. Please do not get developer tools mixed up. It makes you look very daft.

There are developer tools built into Chrome that do the same thing.

Hit F12 and you will see .

As for being daft - I am a web developer, have been for 15 years thanks! I have built software and sites for some massive clients and I think I know what developer tools do.

Yep - people are easily fooled! Oldest trick in the book and it's one that devs use a lot to trick non tech people!

Hacked my arse - yeah I'm sure if it really was that it would have been noticed by Swans fans and mentioned.

Nice try though

I just said that hence mentioning inspect element in the above post. Right click any element on the page and select it. Why use a shortcut when you can just right click the element on the page you want to edit and it takes you straight to the element in question in the developer tools?

No you're not. Stop trying to give your argument some credibility. Firebug is a Firefox extension and whilst Firebug Lite is available for other browsers it is nowhere near enough as useful as Firebug itself. The inspect element option and the Chrome developer tools themselves are just as useful, if not more useful themselves. Any developer worth their salt would know that.

You looked daft because you mentioned Firebug and thats a Firefox extension and it has clearly been edited in Chrome using inspect element. Do you know what browsers look like or do you only develop in one? You should know how they all look by now being a web developer of 15 years as you put it.

Oh hark at her!

Listen pal I have worked a long time in development. I mentioned in my follow up post that Chrome developer extension was used to edit. I only glanced at the pic first time around.

Yes I know a lot about browsers mate, I worked in Norway for Opera back in 2005 I think I know what a browser is and how it operates.

Inspect element isn't specific to Chrome. Firebug has an 'Inspect Element' option too.

Anybody who thinks that the official Swans website was hacked is a fool. It's been reported online and whoever run the story has been fooled into thinking it's real.

Exactly Penguin.

Hit F12 in IE you get a developer tool as well. Although the IE one is shit!

Safari - ditto. Not exclusive to Chrome or Firefox.

Opera has some useful and lesser know ones as well. I saw these way back in the day before they got shipped out years later. They stripped a away a lot of useful toys, but they were a bit of a security risk so were shelved.

Personally, I like Chrome developer tools (console especially) also the Firefox console is nice as well.

He deserves a medal. Class that is

Class whatever the geeky details

I just talked to a guy who edits the swans site and no, not hacked. It was a jpeg using the methods outlined above.

This is all well and good but can any of the techies on here advise us of how to turn the Babes thread into Hologram Porn? Its the future.
