For silly reasons I ended up finding this slightly worrying bug in the code for this discussion site... Click on the textarea below: a javascript alert box should pop up. I have not tried, but this seems like a possible way to have code executed in people's browsers...

This is some random text </p> <hr /> <h2>Anton Geraschenko</h2> <p>Also, it appears that this keeps the input field from appearing (so I can only leave a comment by editing this entry). Also, all this text doesn't appear once I save this edit. This should definitely not happen.</p> </article> </main></body></html>
