Trivia: Weird behavior in Chrome
I don't know if it's Chrome or if it's Windows 10, probably chrome. Some
strange behavior lately. But this one takes the cake... On YouTube. In the search field (text box). This is the text... MKron intitle:intitle:T-i8 As you can see, the term "intitle:" is incorrectly repeated. So, I highlight the first iteration of "intitle:". I begin to click and drag that highlighted text to the beginning of the line, so that it will end up immediately in front of the first word "MKron". After dragging that incorrectly placed iteration of "intitle:" to the beginning of the line, after releasing mouse button, somehow magically the line changes into this... downloadMKron intitle:T-i8 Yep. Somehow the incorrectly placed iteration of "intitle:" changes to "download" when it is dragged to the beginning of the line. The same weirdness repeats after doing an Undo. I have seen weirder behavior in Windows, but had never seen that one. I know a lot about Windows input and output, been using macroing/scripting for decades, but doubt it's related. I do not know where the word "download" came from. Do not recall recently copying it. |

Trivia: Weird behavior in Chrome
MKron intitle:intitle:T-i8
If both iterations are highlighted... "intitle:intitle:" and dragged, they change to "intitle_"... intitle_MKron T-i8 Unless it has something to do with my Almighty Chrome extension Stylebot or with voice-activated scripting, it is probably repeatable on anyone else's machine (in Chrome). Doesn't happen in Firefox. Adding another word with a colon after it... MKron dog:intext:intitle:T-i8 Dragging "dog:" does the same... downloadMKron intext:intitle:T-i8 Apparently it has to do with the colon. Highlighting and dragging multiple "words:" produces other weird results. Weird but not that interesting. I wrote: I don't know if it's Chrome or if it's Windows 10, probably chrome.

When the browser is full of features, and the controls don't work, just about anything could happen. https://github.com/olefirenko/vue-go...lete/issues/62 Any time you see an "input box" on the screen, the input box could be "dumb" or "intelligent" or "interactive". Watch for LED blinks on your network interface, to see if what is rendered in the box, is being drawn by the website itself. As a hint there is lots of stuff going on at the same time. Paul |
