Auto Populate?
On many an occasion I've toyed with the idea of tracking my flights but I'm just not dedicated enough to type them all in. Is there any tool which will auto populate the BA97 calendar from my BAEC Account?

Mac OS X 10.11.6
Firefox 49.0.1
also displays green text, like Safari 10.0
On the same Mac, Chrome 53.0.2785.116 is displaying normal, black text.

Yep - CSS bug. Line 136 of (the compiled) ba97.css is color: #6f69; for any td in #rounded-corner. Four-character hex codes aren't valid, but some browsers appear to be interpreting #6f69 as #6f6.

A few months ago, a friend of mine was having trouble booking a flight from TPE to KIX on 'Peach' airlines. It kept rejecting her card at the payment stage. So she asked me to have a go. It rejected my Visa debit, credit, MasterCard and Amex without so much as a loading screen. Ah, javascript card number validation, thinks I. Sure enough, I did through the JS in Chrome's dev tools, and find a whitelist of first-four-digits of accepted card numbers by country and card type. I commented out the client-side call to run the validation and hey presto, the payment went through and the flight ticketed. After I told her what I'd done, she was very thankful but also apprehensive.
"Did you... hack their site? Because I don't want to get arrested at the airport in Taipei."
(It's okay; she didn't get arrested)

Sorry, I seem to be filtering my email alerts about updates to this thread off to some dead end place. Top tip, thanks for the investigation. Weird how that's sat around for more than 10 years now and only just started causing a problem!
