Just tried; working fine for me.

Even though I didn't need to I did the rebuild wallet; and it continued to work okay afterwards.

Just another datapoint.

[piuk]

same error for me

Ok I think it should be fixed now, I am able to decrypt Tycho's wallet. Could you try again please Chomp.

[Chomp]

It work! Thanks for the hard work piuk.

New version of the javascript verifier available.

A hacker could subvert the javascript check by simply modifying the login form to POST the wallet password to a malicious URL. Intercepting the password without the need for any javascript.

<form action="/password-interceptor" method="POST">
<input type="password" name="password>
<input type="submit" value="Open Wallet">
</form>

In the new version <form> tags are banned from My Wallet pages (In addition to <object> <applet> <embed> <iframe>). Also following this advice href links beginning with "javascript:" and "&{" are also disallowed.

Is there any other way to recieve block broadcasts besides the web socket?  I'm trying to impliment it low-level and I keep getting "GET requests are not supported on this server" etc.

Don't know how relevant it is to you (I think you asked above), but javascript can be embedded in CSS as well using the 'javascript:' scheme in a url().

You can poll http://blockchain.info/latestblock, other than that i'm not sure. That error message probably means you are not including the proper "Upgrade: WebSocket" header in http request and it is being interpreted as a normal GET.

Found a test page at http://krijnhoetmer.nl/stuff/css/url-javascript-opera-chat/ and it would not alert() in Safari, Chrome, Firefox or Opera. Maybe it would be best to run the css through the verifier anyway though.

Perhaps the browsers have fixed that particular XSS hole since I read about it.  That's good news.  Just thought I'd mention it to you on the off chance...

Wow, it's been almost 2 days and I still haven't gotten a confirmation on one of my transactions. Guess that's the last time I send BTC without a fee...

That's unusual. I've been sending them without fees quite often, and they take 30 minutes at most.

I also spend without fees and it never takes long. Maybe yours was just some other random reason.

@piuk, BTW I just noticed that my transaction mentioned above with a dropped output and reverse direction has been rectified and now shows correctly. So, Thank You!

Hello Piuk,
trying to show http://blockchain.info/block-index/1552 I get the home page instead of the blcok, is there any reason for that?

Can you tell us the hash of your TX ?

[DeepBit]

piuk, may be it's time to remove p2pool's payments from "Strange TXes" page ? It's VERY difficult to see something there :)

Never mind, I confused block-index with block-height... sorry for the noise

It disappeared from my transaction list. I tried sending it without a fee again, but it just disappeared again after about a day.

Will do.

It disappeared from my transaction list. I tried sending it without a fee again, but it just disappeared again after about a day.

Sometimes if the transaction is very low value with no fees not even Eligius will accept it in which case it will never get confirmed. Otherwise low fee transaction should only take an hour or two.

Submitted to iPhone app again today. I'm quite please with it now  - some teaser screenshots (1, 2, 3).

@Piuk:
non standard transactions has no data at all about scripts, check for example this one:
http://blockchain.info/rawtx/369970D60BA54BAE122BE472366938626D2533E2F79CDDA407E48EAA3765C68A

type is -1 and no other data is given.
Should'nt you expose the raw script in scenarios like this?

Thanks

Screenshots look unreal! This will be huge news for getting Bitcoin wallets onto iOS devices.. assuming it gets approved

Keep us posted.

Can you add support for Bitcoin URI?
