(b) figure out what Biagio did, because it's got me baffled!

if you look and the url up to that point, it looks like:
http://www.wheresgeorge.com/report.php3?key=0af18ce4984

if you look at biagio's posted url, it looks like:
http://www.wheresgeorge.com/report.php3?key=0af18ce%34984

the "%34" will be treated as a "4" in the url. that is called an escape character, i think. "34" is the ascii for a "4" and 30=0, 31=1, etc. btw, 41=A, 42=B, 61=a, 62=b, etc in case you want to replace other characters. those are all hex values; it is similar to the alt+ codes except they are in decimal, so alt+0048 = 0 and alt+65 = A and alt+97 = a. that is your lesson for today.
