Johari interestingness

One of the responses to my Johari thing was:

Asinine_Petty_Self-serving thinks: tense, tense, responsive, nervous, self-assertive, adaptable.

Apparently I'm two tense! That's actually pretty good.

(I don't know enough Javascript to see how this trick was done. [Actually, I don't know any.])

Well, he had to be able to read it, but this is fairly easy to guess at the meaning of:

document.getElementById("words").value = document.getElementById("words").value + n + ",";

--find the element with ID "words" and concatenate a number and a comma with its value. Then he just had to find the numbers associated with the words:

<td onClick="javascript:boxclick(this,51)">tense</td>

and rewrite the HTML form with his answer handcoded:

<input type="hidden" name="words" value="51,51,41,31,43,3">

or else just un-hide the input field so he could fill in his response:

<input name="words">

In fact, if you just copy the whole page but take out that one type="hidden" (and add a BASE element to pretend it came from kevan.org), you can watch the script fill in numbers as you click on words, and also type in numbers yourself. If you remove the onsubmit="return validate()" from the FORM element, you can even try submitting answers with too few or too many numbers and see if the script at the other end bothers to validate them. Maybe you could have twenty-two tenses!
