google chrome devtools – Use JavaScript to set value of textbox when .value and events don’t seem to work – Stack Overflow

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/11/29

For my link archive: [Wayback/Archive] google chrome devtools – Use JavaScript to set value of textbox when .value and events don’t seem to work – Stack Overflow

TL;DR

Sometimes fields are blocked from pasting values.

Normally a trick like this works in the chrome development panel console:

document.getElementById('nonPasteElementID').value = 'myValueFromTheClipboard'

With some web development environments this does not work.

For react, after finding the react render name for the input (in the case of the answer, it was “reactNameForInputElement“) this is a solution:

To make it work you will need this:

const input = document.getElementById('nonPasteElementID');
const event = new Event('reactNameForInputElement', { bubbles: true });
input.value = '1';
input.dispatchEvent(event);

Online Image Dimension & Size Finder from URL | MyFreeOnlineTools

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/11/10

This was the only site I could find that can you can enter a URL and get the image dimensions.

[Wayback/Archive.is] Onlie Image Dimension & Size Finder from URL | MyFreeOnlineTools

Yes, you can use web-browser tools for this, but the responsive web usually gives you the wrong size.

And yes, it should be “Online”, not “Onlie”, but I used the web-page title which already has the error.

Converting an html dl (delimited list) on a page to a table from the Chrome console

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/09/14

A while ago, I wanted to convert the dl delimited list html element on a web page into a regular table so I could more easily reorder the data into cells.

So I ran the below bit of code in the Chrome Console after first putting the mentioned table with id here_table in the place where I wanted the table to be included:


<table id="here_table"></table>

_table.html

var arr = $("#delimitedList").children().map(function () {
return $(this).html();
}).get();
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i += 2) {
$('#here_table').append('<tr><td>' + arr[i] + '</td><td>' + arr[i + 1] + '</td></tr>');
}

For this script to work, you need jQuery, so yesterday I wrote Better, Stronger, Safer jQuerify Bookmarklet | Learning jQuery.

The code is based on [Wayback/Archive.is] Rebuild each definition list () as a table using JQuery – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive.is] easy!) with an important adoption instead of calling text() to get the textual dt and dd information, it uses html() so the original innerHTML is being preserved.

Some similar JavaScript pieces of code are at [Wayback/Archive.is] Turning HTML into a nested JavaScript array with jQuery – Stack Overflow.

For my link archive, the [Wayback] Better, Stronger, Safer jQuerify Bookmarklet | Learning jQuery

Via: [Wayback/Archive.is] Include jQuery in the JavaScript Console – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive.is] brichins!)

When you do not have jQuery installed, then the Chrome console will give you the error [Wayback/Archive.is] javascript – TypeError: $(...).children is not a function – Stack Overflow which has code to load jQuery in this gist: [Wayback/Archive.is] use jQuery in Chrome javascript console.

If this bookmarklet ever starts to fail, then I need to check out these links:

The content of the JQueryfi bookmarklet is in the below gist:

iOS/Android Privacy: InAppBrowser.com – see what JavaScript commands get injected through an in-app browser · Felix Krause

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/08/31

Especially on Archive, but also on Android and other mobile operating systems, mobile apps can have their in-app browsers to circumvent the OS provided wrapper around the system browser.

On iOS, the Safari is the only system browser engine whereas on Android you can have other engines too, so less Android applications have in-app browsers.

Most of those in-app browsers are in social media applications that go to great length to keep their users inside a walled garden.

The site [Wayback/Archive] inAppBrowser.com helps checking how severely information is leaked through the in-app browser as those potentially have a lot of control. TikTok is worst capturing all input including credentials like user names and passwords.
