HTML Decrypter

[grace]

hey! can somebody teach me where to find an html decrypter? thanx ;)

html isn't encrypted, and can't be, because it is sent to a browser and the browser uses that code to display the page.
The only "encryption" you can have with html is just scrambling a bit so it looks weird to humans, but the computer sees it the same way (there's a script like that here on DD).

What exactly are you trying to do?
We can't help without a bit more specific info...

Im trying to decrypt an html code in friendster.com that was encrypted. Those profiles that are using lay outs. if i view the source the html codes are encrypted..:(

If you send us a link to the page, we can probably tell you how to "decrypt" it.

He is using lay out and his lay out (HTML is encrypted) can this encrypted html be decrypted?

thanx:)

One needs to log on to even see that page and I have no intention of becoming a friendster member. Anyways, FireFox with the developer's extension:

and:

has an option to 'view generated source'. That will 'decrypt' many 'protected' source codes.

Java, or C++ are a couple of examples of encrypted languages. Once you compile them they unreadable, but HTML, JavaScript, or CSS are read by the browser exactly the way you read it.

Not so, the browser reads it only in so far as it is valid according to the browser's programming, skipping everything else and inserting 'implied' code in places.

However, that isn't the issue. HTML pages may be 'encrypted' in many ways. Most of these involve scripts and/or the use of various sorts of javascript and/or HTML entities to obscure the 'plain english' version of the HTML code.

Java, or C++ are a couple of examples of encrypted languages.Compiled, not encrypted. They can still be decompiled.
HTML, JavaScript, or CSS are read by the browser exactly the way you read it.They're still converted into instructions for the computer at some point. The only difference is that the conversion happens after they've been distributed.

:rolleyes: HTML is impossible for me, I have found. If I were younger, I could beat the socks off you young whippersnappers. But age has taken its toll, alas! I am 63 with some bad illnesses. I try to keep my mind active and often try things new.

My brother wrote programs for TVA before he retired. He loaned me a very simple book about HTML. I am trying to take it slow, but it is still like a foreign language.

I guess I am limited to using PSP or Front Page to make any pages I want. I would love to learn html cause it is a challenge for me. But my mind is not as agile at it once was. Anyone got a better solution?

Well, this forum is a great place to start. A tutorial can only take you so far, but this forum can help you greatly.

I have found an html decrypter site. :) I think this can be the solution to my problem. ;)

This site will encrypt the html codes:

And this site will decrypt the codes that was encrypted.

That should be fine as long as the code you are 'decrypting' was 'encrypted' using that same method. The advantage of using the FireFox browser with the developer's extension is that you can see the generated source of a wide variety of these 'encryption' schemes.

Please explain what this is about, thanks.

can anyone tell me what type of encryption this is?

Not without some kind of context. That could be the original, for all I know. Some google urls (when searching) get long strings of random characters like that.
You could of course test it against a few algorithms and see what you get, but that's just guesswork.
The better way to approach the problem is to look at 1) where it's from; 2) why it was encrypted; 3) how it is used-- encryption is fake.... just distortion that then is undistorted by a browser-- so you should be able to see something in the code that is doing it.

The only thing that stands out to me is the character set-- just normal letters and numbers (but I see an "8" so it's not hexidecimal). The "+" is likely switching in for a space or other punctuation, separation of parts, etc., though it could also just be another part of the data.

However, considering copyright, etc., we're hesitant to actually decrypt things without more information (assuming we can/could). And you should be careful as well-- just because you can decrypt it doesn't mean you can use it for free. Encryption is an annoying way to say "hey, this is my stuff, don't use it" which should be already implied by copyright anyway, so encryption is just a nuisance and unimportant compared to copyright.
