Chrome v58 might or might not fix your issue... It really depends to what you're actually POSTing. For example, if you're trying to POST some raw HTML/XML data whithin an input/select/textarea element, your request might still be blocked from the auditor. In the past few days I hit this issue in two different scenarios: a WYSIWYG client-side editor and an interactive upload form featuring some kind of content preview. I managed to fix them both by base64-encoding the raw HTML before POSTing it, then decoding it on the receiving PHP page. This will most likely fix the issue and, most importantly, increase the developer's awareness level regarding the data coming from POST requests, hopefully pushing him into adopting effective data encoding/decoding strategies and strengthen their web application from XSS-type attacks. To base64-encode your content on the client side you can either use the native btoa() function, which is supported by most browsers nowadays, or a third-party alternative such as a jQuery plugin (I ended up using this, which worked ok). To base64-decode the POST data you can then use PHP's base64_encode(str) function, ASP.NET's Convert.FromBase64String(str) or anything else (depending on your server-side scenario). read less

Hi, I am new to Wordpress and want to create a website for a doctor, similar to Lifeforce. What theme would work best for this kind of content? Each theme description is very similar "responsive website, create custom layouts" etc. How do I figure out which theme to select for my requirement? Has anyone used this theme Elegantthemes. It's a paid one in which it is easy to edit, similar to working in Photoshop. Are there any free themes which have this feature?
Hi, Free themes are having limited options. Always go with premium themes like eleganthemes. But I prefer "Total Theme" it has full customized options. You can customize layout, page, header and footer etc.
