Idle Hacking

 Fixing the “Unsupported Browser. Continue at your own risk” Error from Google Calendar Javascript API, when using Safari. First of all… why are they using alert with a service? And worse why are they using an alert in a method with no error handler? Anyways, Javascript is a nice language so we can silence google using a little script like the one below:

 var falert = window.alert;
 window.alert = function() { /* silence google */ };
 var calService = new google.gdata.calendar.CalendarService("wpng-calendar-plugin-1");
 window.alert = falert;
