Posted by jpluimers on 2024/09/10
There are quite a lot of cool responses to b0rk asking this a while back: [Wayback/Archive] 🔎Julia Evans🔍 on Twitter: “does anyone know of a good demo (blog post / video) of how to use a Javascript debugger in a browser to investigate a bug? I’ve used debuggers in C but never Javascript”
Archived just in case I need to do more web development stuff.

So I posted a question at [Wayback/Archive] Need help restoring .nupkg files having zero size · Discussion #2765 · chocolatey/choco which got this answer:

Brush up on your knowledge of the elements with this Chrome Experiment, an interactive Periodic Table by Sarath Saleem: goo-gl/HJ9O31 #fridayfun

[Wayback/Archive] https://plus.google.com/+Chrome/posts/AgtEDd7ngEJ “Brush up on your knowledge of the elements with this Chrome Experiment, an interactive Periodic Table by Sarath Saleem: goo-gl/HJ9O31 #fridayfun”
This reminded me so much about the atom spin tables I wrote some Turbo Pascal code for in the late 1980s to help a university professor. Maybe one day, I will find that code back.
(note: I expanded the actual googl link because Google URL Shortener was killed in 2019 with links stopping to work in 2025, see [Wayback/Archive] Google Graveyard – Killed by Google)

Revisited: Bookmarklet for Archive.is to navivate to the canonical link
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/08/27
I put the proper Bookmarklet wrapper around the functions from Bookmarklet for Archive.is to navivate to the canonical link (because especially Firefox needs them):
An immediately invoked function that returns no value or an expression preceded by the
voidoperator will prevent the browser from attempting to parse the result of the evaluation as a snippet of HTML markup:javascript:(function(){ //Statements returning a non-undefined type, e.g. assignments })();
It means they now have become these:
-
Archive.is: navigate canonical URL
javascript:(function(){location=document.querySelector('link[rel="canonical"]')?.href})(); -
Archive.is: prompt canonical URL
javascript:(function(){prompt("Anchor",document.querySelector('link[rel="canonical"]')?.href)})();

Newer WordPress bookmarklets for navigating from a blog post to the classic editor, or getting the canonical url anchor of a blog post
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/08/08
Last year I posted about Some JavaScript bookmarklets for WordPress published pages centered around navigation and IDs.
It depended on HighlanderComments to exist in order for getting its .connectURL which contains the canonical blog post URL (i.e. from https://wiert.me it obtains https://wiert.wordpress.com).
Nowadays HighlanderComments does not always exist, but in that case <link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href="https://wiert.wordpress.com/xmlrpc.php?rsd"> does exist.
Its’ href value can be obtained by querying document.querySelector('link[rel="EditURI"]').href and truncate it, so I made some conditional code that first tries the HighlanderComments and defers code obtaining it from the link element I mentioned above.
I also added proper Bookmarklet wrappers so the function results don’t leak to the console or Browser (Firefox really does not like Bookmarklets without this wrapper).
javascript:(function(){
//Statements returning a non-undefined type, e.g. assignments
})();
Firefox also dislikes pasting code into the development console.
