There are perks to being a programmer (especially if you're one of few in the office). Aside from being seen as a mysterious internet-whisperer who can magically make computers behave, you have the power to liven up the dreary cubicle farm. All you need are a few JavaScript snippets of code, a coworker's vacant office cubicle, and a ninja suit. Okay, scratch the suit...that might be too obvious.
If you've never used a browser hack or even JavaScript, these JavaScript hacks are still easy enough to use: just copy and paste over the current page's URL. Basically, these JavaScript snippets work perfectly on Firefox 3+ but note that this does not work in all browsers and platforms equally, so do a little testing before you attempt your diabolical schemes.
Here's 3 funny JavaScript pranks you'll be happy to make with your coworkers: Make Web Browser Editable, Complete Browser Freak Out and Buzzing Swarm of Images. These JavaScript pranks and more funny JavaScript effects can be found easily at 9 Funniest JavaScript effects if you still need.

Getting Browser Hacks to Work
If you've never used a browser hack or even JavaScript, these JavaScript hacks are still easy enough to use: just copy and paste over the current page's URL. Basically, these JavaScript snippets work perfectly on Firefox 3+ but note that this does not work in all browsers and platforms equally, so do a little testing before you attempt your diabolical schemes.
1) Make Web Browser Editable
To begin your shenanigans, copy and paste this JavaScript code over the url in your browser:
javascript:document.body.contentEditable='true'; document.designMode='on'; void 0
Ingenious Code Source: DotNetBlocks
2) Complete Browser Freak Out
javascript:function Shw(n) {if (self.moveBy) {for (i = 35; i > 0; i--) {for (j = n; j > 0; j--) {self.moveBy(1,i);self.moveBy(i,0);self.moveBy(0,-i);self.moveBy(-i,0); } } }} Shw(6)-accident
As you can see, the hyper browser is very amusing, but wouldn't last long enough for a sneak-attack prank. For this escapade, you'll likely need to edit the code to last a little longer. To do so, find the statement that says i = 35, and change the number to something larger (300 will buy you about 30 seconds, 600 a minute, and so on).

3) Buzzing Swarm of Images
javascript:R=0; x1=.1; y1=.05; x2=.25; y2=.24; x3=1.6; y3=.24; x4=300; y4=200; x5=300; y5=200; DI=document.getElementsByTagName("img"); DIL=DI.length; function A(){for(i=0; i-DIL; i++){DIS=DI[ i ].style; DIS.position='absolute'; DIS.left=(Math.sin(R*x1+i*x2+x3)*x4+x5)+"px"; DIS.top=(Math.cos(R*y1+i*y2+y3)*y4+y5)+"px"}R++}setInterval('A()',5); void(0);
Then, sit back and enjoy the exclamations of confusion. No one can say your job is boring now!
