javascript - Is form data retained after submitting? -


i know practically nothing javascript, apologies!

but maybe can help: stumbled upon website, "parses" code amazon purchases neat table can copied other purposes.

https://www.ardenstone.com/2015/01/11/exporting-kindle-books-from-amazon/

before go ahead , paste whole amazon list though: can ascertained somehow, whether form saved / sent / submitted somewhere? or deliver results on website eyes only? i'd appreciate if out! thank you!!!

it starts this:

<form id="alp" name="alp" method="post" action="#" onsubmit="parsetext(); return false;">     <textarea cols="50" rows="10" id="alpin"></textarea><br />     <br />     <input type="submit" id="alpsub" value="parse" /><br />     <br /> </form>

and parsetext, after submitting, can found here: https://www.ardenstone.com/projects/amazonkindle/amazonkindle.js

unless software published, can never sure. problem site (the author) make unannounced change turned useful , benign potentially nasty.

when "he", means modify site content, or @ time in future. yes, https link, controls webserver, domain name, etcetera.

if concerned privacy, don't use site. means:

  • get hold of copy of code,
  • analyze it,
  • install on own (secure, private) platform own use.

but if use form on public site is, putting own privacy @ risk.

(on other hand, kind of organizations might interested in amazon purchase history have better ways find out; e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/national_security_letter)

for worth, cannot see obvious problems current1 version of "amazonkindle.js" javascript. however, there subtle sneaky things going on. example, conceivable 1 of other javascript blobs in page alters meaning of something, innocent-looking code in "amazonkindle.js" unexpected.

1 - is, current of when looked @ it!
