After purging over 500 comment spams from the site (and my own inbox) in the last 24 hours, I’m done. No more unregistered comments. If you’re having problems with Typekey– like no confirmation email– go here and post; the nice folks at Six Apart will want to know who can’t get their email, so they can talk with the ISPs.
If that doesn’t satisfy, then send good thoughts to Jay Allen and hope that he gets his new and improved version of MT-Blacklist up and running soon. Even better, kick him some money. (Yes, an appeal for money that neither Peter or I will see a dime of. He’s an anti-spammer. Money isn’t nearly enough, but the only church I can make him a saint in is the Church of the SubGenius.)





Testing this, since I signed up for Typekey about a week back…
Testing
a) Testing…
b) I’ve noticed a small problem with the comments page – whenever I bring up the comments pop-up window (or display the comments for an entry in calendar view), I get:
**
Microsoft JScript runtime error: ‘document.comments_form.email’ is null or not an object
**
This happens in line 322 of http://www.malibulist.com/mt/mt-comments.cgi
document.comments_form.email.value = getCookie(“mtcmtmail”);
I’m guessing that most people won’t see this error, because they don’t have Visual Studio (or some similar programming environment) installed on their machines. Since I do, it gives me the option of debugging the code.
This has only started happening recently (since the move to TypeKey), so I assume it’s related to that.
I post, therefore I am.
It worked today!!!
