Besides manual upload at [Archive.is] Upload to Internet Archive, there are also automated ways of uploading content.
One day I need this to archive pages or sites into the WayBack machine: [WayBack] Overview of Client Libraries · Internet Archive (most of which is Python based):

How to read network requests in Chrome for new tab or popup window
Posted by jpluimers on 2020/05/20
Cool feature I discovered from [WayBack] How to read network requests in Chrome for new tab or popup window:
chrome://net-internals/#events
It will immediately show all events from all tabs including networking events.
The red bar at the top has a drop down on the right where you can stop them and perform a few other actions.
During or after capture, you can select relevant requests from the list (through checkboxes) so the right of the pane gets their info (which is a lot: not just the request/response content including all headers and cookies, but also any delegates from extensions and their results).

CSP and bookmarklets
Posted by jpluimers on 2019/10/25
If you find out bookmarklets like the [WayBack] Press-This or [Archive.is] SubToMe do not work on some pages but to on others.
Often it’s not the bookmarklet, but a combination the site disabling CSP (Content Security Policy) and browsers not coping well with that, see for instance:
- the “Shortcomings” chapter at [WayBack] Git Hub Content Security Policy
- [Archive.is] Mozilla Bookmarklets affected by CSP

Some links and notes as I want to learn about JavaScript in bookmarklets
Posted by jpluimers on 2019/04/11
I wrote about bookmarklets before, but more from a usage perspective, not from a programmers one.
From what I understand now is that:
- bookmarklets are basically a special form of URI
- you can use JavaScript in them, but must make sure you do not interfere with existing JavaScript on the page
javascript:(function(){ window.open('https://wiert.me/'); })();
- the URI has limits so,
- browsers can have length restrictions (some around 500 characters) forcing you to put the actual script on-line as externalised bookmarklet (which won’t work on body-less pages)
- you will have to encode special characters (and URI decode them before beautifying existing JavaScript bookmarklets)
My first tries will likely be:

Topic: “Request Feedback” button vanished | WordPress.com Forums
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/11/02
Too bad, as it was fun while it lasted:
- [WayBack] Topic: “Request Feedback” button vanished | WordPress.com Forums: page 1
- [WayBack] Topic: “Request Feedback” button vanished | WordPress.com Forums: page 2
- [WayBack] Topic: “Request Feedback” button vanished | WordPress.com Forums: page 3
Even worse: the change was not announced, so people find out after the fact. A similar thing happened back in the “Press This” removal process (which got restored).
The cool things about the “Request Feedback” were these:

Yay! The WordPress.com Press-This bookmarklet now works again!
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/11/29

See https://github.com/WordPress/press-this/pull/29 and the discussions in these below threads and sources.
Solves issues:
- #12 – Add text domains
- #15 – Restore Bookmarklet Functionality
- #17 – Needs better documentation
- #32 – The Press This bookmarklet itself on the tools page does not have the code

Some notes on “The WordPress bookmarklet was deprecated. Please delete it from your web browser.” because the `/wp-admin/press-this.php` based URLs look very similar.

Need to write a proper bookmarklet for the wayback archive (:
Posted by jpluimers on 2017/09/14
Some inspiration for writing a proper bookmarklet that finds or saves a WayBack machine page:
- Bookmarklets – What’s New [cannot WayBack nor Google Cache]
- Way Back Machine/Internet Web Archive Bookmarklet Thing [WayBack]
- Archiving Bookmarklets [WayBack]
- Just one click away from Wayback Machine’s archives of current page (Request JavaScript codes for bookmarklet) | Firefox Support Forum | Mozilla Support [WayBack]
- javascript – Posting to Wayback Machine Via Bookmarklet – Stack Overflow [WayBack]
- How to save a web page to the Internet Archive [WayBack]
- How to get the Wayback machine to instantly archive updates to your web page | Why We Protest | Anonymous Activism Forum [WayBack]
On the last link, I was hoping that the https://web.archive.org/liveweb/https://www.example.org would work but it doesn’t work for many URLs and I’m not sure yet why that is.
It has a nice tip that works though:
