Weer een site waar je geen email addressen mag plakken: Kruidvat. Makkelijk te omzeilen.

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/01/08

De blokkade van @KruidvatService tegen plakken van email adressen op kruidvat.nl/login/checkout is makkelijk te omzeilen:

  1. JavaScript uitzetten
  2. email plakken
  3. JavaScript aanzetten
  4. “account aanmaken” klikken
  5. rode velden spatie erbij en meteen spatie weg
  6. stap 4.

A great source to learn about JavaScript element enumeration and modification: iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/12/19

Sometimes one bumps into a Google Chrome extension that is both useful from a practical perspective as insightful on learning from how it is done.

This is one: [Wayback/Archive] iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome: Bypass Paywalls web browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.

It supports many sites (including more than a dozen Dutch ones) for which it is not easy to justify creating separate accounts for them (just the risk of them leaked into Have I been Pwned? is large, despite GDPR) and staying logged on for each of them. I have dozens of listings of my email addresses at haveibeenpwned.com, so I am a lot more careful making accounts than in the past despite assigning unique email addresses for each account (which is part of the burden).

The Wayback Machine Chrome extension got a big update. Every journalist & researcher should install it ASAP! Faster URL archiving w/ customization, access to yr personal archive, and it tells you if the page you’re on has already been archived, etc.

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/12/05

Last year I learned about [Wayback/Archive] Wayback Machine – Chrome Web Store via a Twitter thread starting at

[Wayback/Archive] Craig Silverman on Twitter: “The Wayback Machine Chrome extension got a big update. Every journalist & researcher should install it ASAP! Faster URL archiving w/ customization, access to yr personal archive, and it tells you if the page you’re on has already been archived, etc. #osint”

javascript – Chrome debugging – break on next click event – Stack Overflow

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/11/23

I wish I had known this ages ago: [Wayback/Archive] javascript – Chrome debugging – break on next click event – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive] D.R. for asking and [Wayback/Archive] Konrad Dzwinel for answering):

What you are looking for are [Wayback/Archive] ‘Event Listener Breakpoints‘ on the Sources tab. These breakpoints are triggered whenever any event listener, that listens for chosen event, is fired. You will find them in the Sources tab. In your case, expand ‘Mouse’ category and choose ‘Click’.

[Wayback/Archive] 0x48piraj/fadblock: Friendly Adblock for YouTube: A fast, lightweight, and undetectable YouTube Ads Blocker for Chrome, Opera and Firefox.

At the time of writing, it was available in these web-browser extension/addon stores:

A 404 was returned at [Wayback/Archive] https://addons.opera.com/en-gb/extensions/details/fadblock/ which I reported in [Wayback/Archive] Extension vanished from the Opera Addons page · Issue #15 · 0x48piraj/fadblock.

Chrome (likely also Firefox/Edge/Safari): no non-global way to workaround Bookmarklets failing on GitHub raw code with “Blocked script execution…”

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/10/18

Last year, I answered [Wayback/Archive] javascript – Bookmarklet to append a string to a URL – Stack Overflow (asked by [Wayback/Archive] Karlo Guidoni Martins, thanks!).

It is about not being able to run bookmarklets on pages hosted by for instance:

  • gist.githubusercontent.com
  • raw.githubusercontent.com

GitHub is an exception, as RAW files from these services do work fine:

At first sight, when running a Bookmarklet on those RAW GitHub served pages, you do not see an error: it just looks like the Bookmarklet does not work at all. The last part is right, but in the Chrome console you can actually see the error.

That error lead me to my answer:

Javascript – Copy string to clipboard as text/html – Stack Overflow

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/09/27

For my link archive is the below answer that should help me a lot with unfinished bits from Some JavaScript bookmarklets for WordPress published pages centered around navigation and IDs.

Goal of that post was to have some grounding and eventually find a means to build an HTML page in a new tab using a bookmarklet that I then later could post to my blog.

Assembling to HTML and putting it on the clipboard might be a lot easier and better fitting in my workflow.

So, via [Wayback/Archivejavascript copy html to clipboard – Google Search, for my link archive: [Wayback/Archive] Javascript – Copy string to clipboard as text/html – Stack Overflow (thanks [Wayback/Archive] Loilo for answering and [Wayback/Archive] kofifus for asking):

Below is a function that will do exactly that. I tested it with your required browsers, it works in all of them. However, IE 11 will ask for confirmation on that action.

Explanation how this works can be found below, you may interactively test the function out in this jsFiddle.
