Only a few Facebook users are aware of this fact, but for many others, this might seem a bit surprising. Facebook accepts the following forms of your password: 1. Your Original Password Let me explain this to you with the following example. Assume that your default Facebook password that you created during the sign-up process is: 2. Password with the Case Toggled In the above password the letters ‘F’ and ‘P’ are in uppercase and the remaining are in the lowercase.

How to Bypass Right Click Block on Any Website

In order to block the right-click activity, most websites make use of JavaScript which is one of the popular scripting languages used to enhance functionality, improve user experience and provide rich interactive features. In addition to this, it can also be used to strengthen the website’s security by adding some of the simple security features such as  disabling right-click ,  protecting images ,  hiding or masking parts of a web page  and so on. How JavaScript Works? Before you proceed to the next part which tells you how to disable the JavaScript functionality and bypass any of the restrictions imposed by it, it would be worthwhile for you to take up a minute to understand how JavaScript works. JavaScript is a client side scripting language (in most cases), which means when loaded it runs from your own web browser.
