This is a really cool idea -- can you use a link shortener so that it fits?

Slashes are not possible, that makes it hard to load code from somewhere.

Well, you could bypass that by using String.fromCharCode() eventually?

i.e.

https://igot99inputs.appspot.com/andthisainttwo<img src=x onerror=document.location.href=String.fromCharCode(104,116,116,112,58,47,47,119,119,119,46,103,111,111,103,108,101,46,100,101); >

(that's google.com)

Great point. I'll change it so slash is no longer a delimiter. What character do you think would work ?

I also do not get this at all. I see what you're trying to do, but I still don't get the point.

I sincerely don't understand why you are doing this. Are you mad against forms?

Sometimes a form will not accept "NA" it requires a URL, so I made URL's that "mean" NA. Or other things!
