Problem with stack based implementation of function 0x42 of int 0x13

I'm trying a new approach to int 0x13 (just to learn more about the way the system works): using stack to create a DAP.. Assuming that DL contains the disk number, AX contains the address of the bootable entry in PT, DS is updated to the right segment and the stack is correctly set, this is the code: push DWORD 0x00000000 add ax, 0x00...

Assume, for whatever reason, that we have three inline scripts on a page. Each of these scripts are functionally the same, and all three will create a script tag, with the source set to a server-side script (each with slightly different parameters) which returns JS to execute. Assume this JS contains a global variable containing importan...
