i've added a panic mode to my website, its a games website so people will play it at my school but if a teacher sees it the site will get blocked, so if you type ?panic=true it changes the title from, say "Yarrt.com - Games - Barbarian Bob" to "Wikipedia.org - Online Encyclopedia", i chose wikipedia because its allowed and my school encourages the use of it, soon instead of having to type ?panic=true all the time, i'm going to add a Panic Button on every page, so good idea or bad idea?

awesome idea!

what about the ability to change the title without reloading the page (maybe with javascript or something), that way they don't lose the game they were playing...

Hah, awesome idea! We don't really need anything like that 'coz our teachers never really care if we go on games and stuff. They just say "As long as you're getting your work done, then I don't really care". Still a really cool idea though :)

now ive got rid of that ?panic=true stuff, now just click the 'Panic' button on the first page, after clicking it it changes to the 'Unpanic' button which changes the title back.

Jeez ,what a great idea
I especially liked it when I first saw that type of idea in 1982 on the original IBM PC
"Quick the BOSS is coming" KEY was a common feature on a lot of early games,because of the number of people who had access to computers only at their workplace.
In those days the dummy screen tended to be a fake Spreadsheet as VisiCalc and LOTUS123 were both top sellers

I wish I had that in my keyboarding class.... Yahoo! Games should have that in their Pool rooms ;) I got in trouble for it, but after that, everybody else in all of my teacher's classes stopped playing :D

Incidently, I was minimizing a Word window when the game popped up... oops!
