"Viewstate (ASP.NET) ASP.NET has an option to maintain your ViewState. The ViewState indicates the status of a page when submitted to the server. The status is defined through a hidden field placed on each page with a control. Viewstate can be used as a CSRF defense, as it is difficult for an attacker to forge a valid Viewstate. It is not impossible to forge a valid Viewstate since it is feasible that parameter values could be obtained or guessed by the attacker. However, if the current session ID is added to the ViewState, it then makes each Viewstate unique, and thus immune to CSRF. To use the ViewStateUserKey property within the Viewstate to protect against spoofed post backs. Add the following in the OnInit virtual method of the Page-derived class (This property must be set in the Page.Init event) protected override OnInit(EventArgs e) { base.OnInit(e); if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated) ViewStateUserKey = Session.SessionID; } The following keys the Viewstate to an individual using a unique value of your choice. (Page.ViewStateUserKey) This must be applied in Page_Init because the key has to be provided to ASP.NET before Viewstate is loaded. This option has been available since ASP.NET 1.1. However, there are limitations on this mechanism. Such as, ViewState MACs are only checked on POSTback, so any other application requests not using postbacks will happily allow CSRF. "

This page was created to calculate the CSS specificity of a stylesheet (not including the inline or style rules; the "a" part of the equation). Before this little project, I didn't have a clear understanding of the specificity rules. Now, after creating this page, I don't think I'll need this application.

Specificity is a mechanism within the CSS cascade that aids conflict resolution. The concept of specificity states that when two or more declarations that apply to the same element, and set the same property, have the same importance and origin, the declaration with the most specific selector will take precedence.

Specificity Calculator isn't a CSS validator. If you enter invalid selectors it will return incorrect results. For example, the negation pseudo-class may only take a simple selector as an argument. Using a psuedo-element or combinator as an argument for :not() is invalid CSS3 so Specificity Calculator will return incorrect results.
