RE: [Full-disclosure] Using domain whois information for fun and profit



A google search for HTML based Whois pages turned up:
http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/Tools/whois.php
If you do a whois on carefreetravelmn.com
<http://carefreetravelmn.com/> , you get a popup window.

Should internic allow <tags> to be used in domain registration
contact info?

I don't see why not, it's just data. It comes without saying that if
you use data in a context where it might be more, you handle it
appropriately. If you echo data that is interpreted by a browser, you
should filter the tags - be it user input, the http referer field, the
reverse dns for the IP, etc.
Plus, when i do a whois at the shell, i wouldn't like to see &lt/&gt
instead of the the html opening tags. The idea ain't bad though, it's
probably fun to see info about some percentage of the people that do
whois on our domains/ip's.
