Must be some Javascript you're allowing the page to run, because it works fine for me.
JS should have stayed where it was, in the browser ;D
@dang, can the title be modified to include the programming language/environment? (browser-only JS)
In that case, it's no longer standard or portable HTML/JS, no?
That won't work for pure javascript sites like Twitter.
It seems to be available in browser, see script.js it's not minified.
wtf ... put some copy somewhere on the page to say what this is... someone's javascript homework?
it's implemented in js because that's what's available, but there's no reason this functionality couldn't be folded into HTML itself and then implemented in browsers without requiring js
But JS is still required to for this to work, the title is a bit misleading
back in the day you just did script src... none of this bullshit
