I hope somebody can help. I'm trying to remove items from ebay listings with the Firefox addon RIP (remove it permanently) which uses XPath and removes selected paths. As a side note: the addon is quite old and so it only works with old versions of Firefox. But I think the addon itself is not really relevant for the solution since I guess it's an XPath problem that needs to be solved.
So for example, if I want to remove every item on this ebay listing:
ebay listing
that contains the keyword "Agfa" I try this (after checking the source code of the webpage):
//li[#class='s-item s-item__pl-on-bottom']/img[contains(#alt,'Agfa')]
I have also tried different approaches but to no avail. The items would not get removed. Note that the ebay listings are updated all the time, so you will need to try with other keywords that are currently in the listing.
does anybody have a clue how to do it?
What I sucessfully done to remove Agfa item in dev tools of your browser:
$x('//li[#data-viewport][contains(., "AGFA")]')[0].remove()
For multiples items:
$x('//li[#data-viewport][contains(., "AGFA")]').filter(elt => elt.remove())
If you just need the XPath to feed RIP :
'//li[#data-viewport][contains(., "AGFA")]'

My extension renders additional links on a page (that is adds some <a href='...'>...</a> to the page text (in HtmlPageLinkRendererEnd hook)).
See small arrows in https://withoutvowels.org/wiki/Tanakh:Genesis_1:1 for an example. The arrows are automatically added by my extension (sorry, at the time of writing this the source code is not yet released).
The problem is that red/blue ("new") status is not updated for links which I add.
Please explain how to make Wikipedia to update color of my links as appropriate together with regular [[...]] MediaWiki links.
My current workaround is to run php maintenance/update.php. It is a very bad workaround. How to do it better?
Normally you'd use LinkRenderer to create the links and LinkBatch to make the page existence check efficient (you don't want a separate SQL query for each link). You can't really do that in HtmlPageLinkRendererEnd since you only learn about the links one by one.
The way the parser deals with this is that it replaces links with a placeholder and collects them in a list, then after parsing is mostly done it looks them all up at once and then switches the placeholders with the rendered links. You can probably hook into somthing that happens between the two (e.g. ParserAfterParse), get the list of links from the parser and use them to build a list of your own links.
With valuable help of Wikitech-l mailing list, I found a solution.
The solution is to use ParserAfterTidy hook.
public static function onParserAfterTidy( &$parser, &$text ) {
# ...
$parserOutput = $parser->getOutput();
foreach($parserOutput->getLinks() as ...) {
# ...
$parserOutput->addLink( Title::newFromDBkey(...) );
}
}
Does anyone know how i can get better formatting for Razor/HTML (with CTRL K+D or another Shortcut) ?
I want it to be nicely intended, every tag be in a new line, every attribute inside a tag should also get a new line.
Tools -> Options -> TextEditor -> HTML does not give these options no matter how configure it.
I also could not find an extension to do this.
Resharper has some nice options for organising your code
EDIT: although it looks like there isn't a lot of support for HTML formatting more for the C#/VB code side of things
It is relatively straight forward to iterate through IHTMLStyleSheetsCollection, IHTMLStyleSheet, IHTMLStyleSheetRulesCollection etc. of IHTMLDocument2 to obtain list of all styles in current document.
Any ideas on how to get a list of only used styles in the document? And to be more precise, I am looking for how to find out which images from the css files are being used in the document.
There is a program that says it is able to do this (determine which css images are being used) if IE8/IE9 is installed.
Thanks
Ok I have found an answer to this:
Recent browser versions (FF 3.5, IE 8) have implemented a querySelector method that can be used to query if a selector is used on a page.
see: https://developer.mozilla.org/En/DOM/Document.querySelector for more info.
I have a problem with a project that I have been working on for a while now. When I open an entry, the inputs all have data in them. However when I go to actually print the entry (using the print-mode, CTRL+P), I notice that the select, and textarea fields are missing the selected or input text on paper. What's going on here? I have googled for hours and can't come up with anything relevant... help! Thanks!
Link to Project (Click "Demo" to create a session - required)
Link to Entry (Click this after you click the 1st link)
Update : Before now I have just been using Google Chrome to test printing. However, when I tried FireFox, it printed alright, is there anything special I need to do to get Chrome to work??...
RESOLUTION : I am using jQuery and I found that by removing the ui-corner-all class from the inputs before printing, I could then print. Thanks anyways!
If you're using Internet Explorer, then this discussion thread may help you (summary: IE can get confused when printing malformed docs). Check your doctype tag matches your output (the w3c markup validator is very useful)
Edit - I see you're using chrome, but I suggest you still check your page is well formed :)

I have a website in which I have many categories, many sub-categories within each one and many products within each of those. Since the URLs are very user-unfriendly (they contain a GUID!!!), I would like to use a method which I think is called URL Masking. For example instead of going to catalogue.aspx?ItemID=12343435323434243534, they would go to notpads.htm. This would display the same as going to catalogue.aspx?ItemID=12343435323434243534 would display, somehow.
I know I could do this by creating a file for each category / sub-category (individual products cannot be accessed individually as it is a wholesale site - customers cannot purchase directly from the site). This would be a lot of work as the server would have to update each relevant file whenever a category / sub-category / product visibility changes, or a description changes, a name changes... you get the idea...
I have tried using server-side includes but that doesn't like it when a .aspx file is specified in an html file.
I have also tried using an iframe set to 100% width / height and absolutely positioned left 0 and top 0. This works quite well, but I know there are reasons you should not use this method such as some search engines not coping with it well. I also notice that the title of the "parent" page (notepads.htm) is not the title set in the iframe (logically this is correct - but another issue I need to solve if I go ahead and use this method).
Can anyone suggest another way I could do this, or tell me whether I am going along the right lines by using iframes? Thanks.
Regards,
Richard
PS If this is the wrong name for what I am trying to do then please let me know what it actually is so I can rename / retag it.
Look into URL Rewrites. You can create a regular expression and map it to your true url. For example
http://mysite.com?product=banana
could map to
http://mysite.com?guid=lakjdsflkajkfj3lj3l4923892&asfd=9234983920894893
I believe you mean URL Rewriting.
IIS 7+ has a rewrite module built in that you can use for this kind of thing.
URL Rewriters solve the problem you are describing - When someone requests page A, display page B - in a general way.
But yours is not a general requirement. You seem to have a finite uuid-to-shortname mapping requirement. This is the kind of thing you could or should set up in your app, yourself, rather than inserting a new piece of machinery into your system.
Within a default .aspx page, You'd simply do a lookup on the shortname from the url in a persistent table stored somewhere, and then call Server.Transfer() to the uuid-named page associated to that shortname.
It should be easy to prototype this.
