"alt" button:
alternate attack mode

You'll find in the toolbar a discreet and mysterious button marked "alt" . What's its use?

If you experience troubles viewing a disaster on a specific target, click this alternate button. The target-site will be attacked with the current options, but with a different approach (technically speaking). That may solve some of these troubles (but may also cause some others - nothing's really perfect in a "disastered" world).

Examples:

• If you're attacking a page with drop-down selectors, you might prefer to use this alternate mode in order to prevent the selectors to overlay the disasters.

• Also, Flash movies in the target page may seem to fly over the Netdisaster attack. Try the alternate button.

• When the target-page has a field form that keeps the focus, keyboard control might not work. Use the Alternate button then .

Once you have clicked this button, all further attacks will use this alternate mode (the button is "on": ). Click again to get back to the standard attack mode.
