( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Thus I'm shamelessly asking the JS-gurus hanging around here if they could concoct up a tiny script that would check the URL for the current page and if it does not have either a node parameter or a node_id one, then find the latter (I seem to have understood that pages are regular enough to allow one to do so reliably) and reload the page redirecting there.

I'm not a guru, but this snippet should do the job. It checks the current url, and if it just ends in /?, it gets the current pages node ID via XPath and redirects there.
NO WARRANTIES. Although I've tested it, please keep a Free Nodelet Settings tab open without this hack in it, to emergency-post that in case something goes wrong.

var uri = new String(document.location); if (uri.match(/\/\?$/)) { var id = document.evaluate("/html/body/table`[@id='titlebar-bottom'] +/tbody/tr/td`[1]/span/a`[1]", document, null, XPathResult.ORDERED_NOD +E_SNAPSHOT_TYPE, null).snapshotItem(0).innerHTML; id = parseInt(id); if (id != 11911) { uri = uri.replace(/\?/,"?node_id=" + id); document.location = uri; } }

There might be other cases than post previews for which redirection isn't wanted; adding those is left as an exercise to the reader ;-)

update: scratch that, ++ccn's solution looks better... well, TIMTOWTDI ;)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
