Comment on GeoCities in 1995: Building a Home Page on the Internet

Comments

I still remember all those "guides" about how to design your page, so that the annoying forced ad gets not served / shown.

window.top.location = window.location

At one point, you could leave an open <script> tag at the end of the HTML with the language attribute set to "javascript9.9" or something non-existent, and the JavaScript banner ads wouldn't load.

Good times, those were.
