I'm wondering if a webpage can get a listing of your url history?

I don't know Javascript, but: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/obj_history.asp

The history object contains the URLs visited by the user (within a browser window).

The history object is part of the window object and is accessed through the window.history property.

Note: There is no public standard that applies to the history object, but all major browsers support it.

I researched this last night for a few hours. There are techniques to see if a browser has been to a site (like http:\\localhost); but, by design, a webpage (via javascript or DOM) does not allow review of full URL history. Seems to use an internal browser function to check if a site has been visited - that's it - no general browsing of a client history. You can throw the browser back to previous pages and then get the URL in DOM, but that would double buy an alias - which has never occurred. Based on this, it appears URL history, by browser design, cannot be accessed from a webpage.

I'll check if a webpage can read the clipboard. That's about the only thing coming to mind.

BTW. If anyone was clever enough to do this, they would make millions in advertising. No need to waste time with NXT atm.

Javascript can definitely read the clipboard from a webpage. If you copy-n-paste password, clear the clipboard after you log in NRS.
