What is this on google?

I thought it to be XSS but doesn,t seem like that.

Any ideas?

 

LOL, funny.

Also what are you trying to ask? How it works?

 

LMAO that's a good one...

Look out Chuck is looking for you on the Web...

 

Yes, i mean that!

 

If you do a regular search for "find chuck norris" you get a list of sites. Note the URL of the
site at the top of the list:


____________________________________________________

When you click on "I feel lucky" Google takes you directly to the site that's at the top of the list:


____________________________________________________

If you look at the source code of the main Google page, you see two different URL search parameters (btnG, btnI).
These are what trigger either a search list or auto-open of the 1st page on the list:

Code:

<input name=btnG type=submit value="Google Search">

<input name=btnI type=submit value="I'm Feeling Lucky">

Rmus thanks, that,s interesting. Never realized it. Probably because i never used I am lucky feature of Google in every day life.

Thanks

 

I don't use that "feature" either, but I've known about it for some time.
