[Archive-access-discuss] Can Wayback cope with window.open('{URL}','_self'); ?

[Jackson, A. <And...@bl...>]

Hi All,

 

We're having problems with live-leakage, in that if you go to:

 

http://www.webarchive.org.uk/wayback/archive/20081212111012/http://www.w
oolworthsgroupplc.com/site/woolworths.asp
<http://www.webarchive.org.uk/wayback/archive/20081212111012/http:/www.w
oolworthsgroupplc.com/site/woolworths.asp> 

 

Then some JavaScript immediately redirects you to the live version of
the site:

 

window.open('http://www.woolworths.co.uk/','_self');

 

Does anyone know if there is any existing code in Wayback one can use to
override this behaviour?

 

Thanks for your time,

Andy Jackson
