I'd love to see some brave soul try it out and let us know the results. No way I'm typing my number in there.

Glad every on got a laugh!

There was a site some years ago where it looked you were deleting windows and uploading Mac OS.

You sent it to some one and when it started loading it looked like it was deleting their windows os and uploading Mac OS.

Anyone remember it-?

I never got to the part where it apparently tells me it’s a joke, ’cause for some strange reason, the phone number field is limited to seven digits, which is not enough for my phone number.

No, my phone number is eight digits, as are all Danish phone numbers.

But, unlike US numbers, and apparently unforeseen by that website, Danish phone numbers are not divided into area codes and local numbers. You dial the same number regardless of location. No leading zeros, either. So I can’t fill out the area code field, since it’s not applicable to my number, but I can’t fit my number in the actual number field, either.

Judging by responses in this thread, this particular site seems to be a joke site, but it seriously ticks me off when even large international websites make simple mistakes such as this, or the infamous “You must choose a state” messages (after you’ve chosen Denmark, which is not divided into states, from a drop-down list).

Any random 7 character string (numbers, letters, symbols) will work just fine at that site.

eg - just enter @#$%^&*

Nice.

A friend of mine once sent me a gag file years ago. It created a cat that chased around the mouse cursor all over the screen.
I like my water with hops, malt, hops, yeast, and hops.
