my neocities site used to have a bunch of javascript.

for example, i had a page that existed to load up chapters of various stories so that you could read all of the chapters in one page, sort of like ao3's view full work feature. because it was scripted dynamically, i didn't have to maintain a separate copy of the text, and it was actually more flexible than what ao3 offers, because you could read specific arcs, heck, you could read a specific sequence of chapters (e.g., 2-13 specifically)

another thing i didn't want to maintain by hand was header at the top of the page with navigational links, so i had a script that updates them on page load.

problem is, it kind of just feels bad to load a page, then see a visible delay before the header pops in.

i spent almost a year living like that, but i eventually stopped maintaining my html by hand, and learned the joys of the static site generator.

i didn't need the chapter loader anymore, either - i could code my site generator to concatenate chapters into a full-text page, and since it's static, it'd load much faster than make the user's browser stitch together the html every time they want to open that page.

slowly but surely, everything i might've used js for was getting replaced by simpler, faster, and easier means.

i don't make much use of it, but my site actually has discord-style spoiler text. blocks of text you can click to reveal (and the css is uses currentColor, so it works even on different themes)

i don't even need javascript for this; the way i accomplish it is a bit clever:

it's a checkbox! even if you hide the actual box, you can still click the label to toggle its state

this was something i implemented early, based on this blog post where a similar trick was used for a no-js dark/light mode toggle.

but i took this to a new height this year: i added fancy footnotes

but under the hood, it's the same principle

check box to toggle the state, then some fancy css it position it to float above the text.

but of course, if i'm doing all of this without javascript, what do i need javascript for?

and there was only one feature that stuck around. it's something that i think no one really used, but i'm attached to it.

you see, i'm notorious for writing long chapters. i could split them up, but i have particular stopping points in mind. still, i am merciful, so in my stories with consistently long chapters, i'm gone out of my way to insert break points, "subchapters" seamless into the main text.

those little roman numerals would trigger a script that reformatted the page to hide all the other subchapters, and reconfiguring the next/prev buttons so that clicking them takes you to the next section rather than the next chapter

in theory, you could read Hostile Takeover as if it were a fic with 72 chapters instead of 16.

now, this is a very complex feature. you cant use checkbox tricks to emulate this, unless you want to go crazy writing a dozen css rules for every permutation of checkboxes, or force the user to figure out an arcane system where you need to uncheck one section before loading the next

but it turns out, while i wasn't paying attention, the css committee added a crazy new feature. there are :has selectors, enabling you to style elements based on the properties of elements that come below it in the document.

the whole game has changed now.

couple this with learning about :target selectors courtesy of wonder how a couple of really ambitious ao3 fics do their magic, i had everything i need

all it took to make subchapters happen now a few simple rules

really, you only need that first line. it says "if main has a target element, hide all subchapters that aren't the target"

the other lines are convenience; they had the next/prev chapter buttons if you're in the middle of the chapter. there's a couple other rules (beside the subchap nav i added a button that takes you to the top of the page, which resets the anchor target), but overall, it was quick and painless. really, the actual struggle was teaching my site generator spit out the right html. (i spent five minutes tearing out my hair and rebuilding to no effect because i forgot i had two layers of caching. whoops)

this new approach does sacrifice the ability to make the arrow buttons do double duty, but i don't think it's a big loss when the subchapter buttons are right there, and arguably retaining the single function of each button is a win for usability.

the biggest loss is that there's no real way to style the buttons differently if they've been clicked, so you don't actually know which subchapter you're actually browsing.

(maybe if anyone i actually uses this feature, they can complain to me and i'll whip up a quick bit of js to patch it :v)

but until then, i'll take some satisfaction in delete my site's scripts entirely. in a way, that's the biggest loss, but it's one of i'm proud of

Super Simple Google Font Loader In JavaScript

This is super lightweight Google Font Loader written in vanilla JavaScript. Let’s say you’re working on a project where you need to use Google Fonts on a canvas element. In such cases, directly embedding fonts through the usual <link> tag in the <head> may not be sufficient to guarantee the fonts are fully loaded before your JavaScript code attempts to use them. This is where GoogleFontLoader…

we might actually work on our websites today, we have maintenance we've been wanting to get done for ages but we've been too unwell and burned out and busy etc but i think we're feelin it

maintenance to do list (Virtual Observer):

finally make the comment widget QOL update (mainly to clear out the text fields after submitting a comment so people don't accidentally submit double comments + implement a small fix to disable the comment section after submission until the comments load again, for slower connections) and link a couple of cool mods on the page for it. also clarify some of the wording on the page/make an FAQ

implement a comment section into kiki's journal using the above widget. this may be kinda weird because it's a javascript loader and doesn't use iframes, perhaps manually implement URL parameters in the JS?

make a proper splash page for mobile users since right now it's still what kiki threw together to get it out

change kiki's introduction and move all that internet manifesto type stuff to its own page at a later time

the icon/link to BMF on ayano's half STILL says CPG... it's been months...

change our guestbook from 123guestbook to the comment widget code

kiki could probably stand to change the list of sites she likes again

maintenance to do list (Blue Moon Falls):

update the Egg Hue Previewer to have a language option since "EGG" is different in other languages

add a disclaimer about how you can't use a pokemon nickname that is the same as the species name in all caps in the general stadium hue previewer

completely rebuild the stat experience tracker tool from scratch to make it more accessibility-friendly and up to the standards of the current site

brighten the red on the yellow site theme

remove the notice about the CPG name change (probably unnecessary at this point)

look into making a BMF RSS feed (we've never done RSS so there will be a learning curve)

at some point we need to fix some old HTML quirks so that BMF can be properly run through the WC3 validator (mostly change link buttons to have targets instead of using tags)

definitely won't get this done all in one day but we can start chipping at it. after that we can start working on new projects

I disagree; I see no slippery slope here. The distinction between TikTok and US-based apps is clear:

TikTok and its parent company are captured by and beholden to the Chinese Communist Party. They lie about this repeatedly, and have been caught delivering data and feature "updates" at the CCP's urging.

TikTok is built differently from US apps. Instead of submitting their app to the app stores for testing and approval, they submit a Javascript loader which can load arbitrary code. Their userbase is so large that no US vendor can get away with rejecting this wide-open loophole

Combine the two facts, and now you see a Chinese government (!) that can choose to execute arbitrary code on US phones, while also hoovering up information on the Wi-Fi networks they're attached to.

Facebook and Twitter and the rest can't even dream of this level of control, and no, the US government has no interest in "controlling the narrative". Our legislature flies into an incendiary frenzy any time the CIA, NSA, or other agencies do anything that even smells like it might rhyme with "changing what US citizens see in their free press". There is literally no way any organ of the US Federal or State governments could effectively alter the narratives US voters are seeing; the moment their plan was submitted for approval their funding would be zeroed out.

This legislation - as badly as it has been messaged from on high - is simply about making sure that if the US government is not going to meddle with our media, then no other government will either. TikTok is -- demonstrably, repeatedly, emphatically -- the Chinese government and they definitely can and will move that lever if permitted to do so.

The fact that China's government is protesting tells you everything you need to know. If TikTok weren't their sock puppet, and if they did not plan to leverage it as a mouthpiece... why would they be upset at the US taking it offline? Either it's not theirs, or it is, but they have no desire to use it for strategic purposes. Or both are true, and they are very upset to have their plans spoiled.

so the house of representatives just passed a bill that will now move to the senate to BAN tik tok completely in the united states and they are expected to argue that “national security risks” outweigh the freedom of speech and first amendment rights. biden has already said that if it gets to him, he will sign it. whether or not you use the app…….this is something to be worried about

Micro-Interactions: How Small Details Enhance User Experience

Micro-Interactions: How Small Details Enhance User Experience

Micro-interactions are subtle animations and feedback mechanisms that make digital experiences more engaging, intuitive, and user-friendly. These small details significantly impact usability, engagement, and delight without overwhelming users.

1. What Are Micro-Interactions?

A micro-interaction is a small, functional animation that occurs in response to a user’s action. They guide users, provide feedback, and improve the overall UX.

🔹 Examples: ✅ A “like” button that animates when clicked ❤️ ✅ A password strength meter while typing 🔒 ✅ A loading spinner when fetching data ⏳

💡 Micro-interactions improve UX by making interfaces feel alive, intuitive, and responsive.

2. Key Components of Micro-Interactions

Every micro-interaction consists of four key parts:

1️⃣ Trigger — The user action or system event that initiates the micro-interaction. 2️⃣ Rules — Define what happens once the interaction starts. 3️⃣ Feedback — Provides real-time response (e.g., animation, vibration). 4️⃣ Loop & Mode — Determines if the interaction repeats or adapts based on context.

🔹 Example: Toggle Button Animation

Trigger: User taps the toggle switch.

Rules: The toggle state changes from “Off” to “On.”

Feedback: The switch smoothly slides and changes color.

Loop & Mode: The toggle remains in its new state until changed.

3. Why Micro-Interactions Matter in UX Design

✅ Enhance User Engagement: Makes the UI more interactive and fun. ✅ Provide Instant Feedback: Shows the result of an action in real time. ✅ Improve Usability: Helps guide users intuitively. ✅ Add Personality to a Brand: Creates a more human and relatable experience.

4. Common Micro-Interaction Examples

🔹 Loading Animations

🔄 Prevent frustration by keeping users informed. Instead of a boring “Loading…” message, a creative animation can improve perceived performance.

✅ Example:

Spinning loader (⏳)

Skeleton screens (gradually load content)

Progress bars (indicate completion)

🔹 Button Feedback & Hover Effects

📍 Enhances interactions and confirms user actions.

✅ Example:

Buttons change color or size when hovered.

A ripple effect when clicking a button.

cssCopyEditbutton:active { transform: scale(0.95); }

🔹 Form Validations & Input Feedback

✍️ Makes form-filling easier and error-free.

✅ Example:

Inline validation messages (✅ or ❌).

Password strength indicators.

Shake animation for incorrect input.

javascriptif (password.length < 6) { inputField.classList.add("shake"); }

🔹 Like, Share, & Favorite Animations

❤️ Encourages engagement and interaction.

✅ Example:

Clicking a heart icon makes it pop & change color.

Social media reactions (e.g., Facebook’s Like button).

javascriptheartIcon.addEventListener("click", () => { heartIcon.classList.add("animate-heart"); });

🔹 Toggle Switch & Dark Mode

🌗 Smooth transitions improve experience.

✅ Example:

A toggle switch animates when switching between light and dark modes.

Background and elements smoothly transition between themes.

javascripttoggleButton.addEventListener("click", () => { document.body.classList.toggle("dark-mode"); });

5. Best Practices for Designing Micro-Interactions

🎯 Keep it Simple — Subtle animations work best; avoid overuse. ⚡ Make it Fast — Animations should be quick (0.2–0.5s). 🎨 Match the Brand Personality — Ensure animations align with the app’s tone. 🎯 Provide Feedback — Always let users know what’s happening. 📱 Ensure Accessibility — Avoid relying only on color; support screen readers.

6. Tools to Create Micro-Interactions

🚀 For UI Designers:

Figma, Adobe XD, Sketch — For prototyping animations.

Lottie (Airbnb) — Lightweight animated SVGs & JSON-based animations.

💻 For Developers:

CSS Animations & Transitions — For simple hover and click effects.

JavaScript & GSAP — For dynamic and interactive animations.

Framer Motion (React) — For smooth UI animations.

7. Conclusion

Micro-interactions may seem small, but they greatly enhance user experience by making interfaces more engaging, intuitive, and fun. When used effectively, they improve usability, reduce friction, and add a human touch to digital products.

How to stop JS script in certain user agents in Magento 2?

In Magento 2, you may want to prevent a specific JavaScript from running on certain user agents, older browsers, or certain bots for performance reasons or to prevent compatibility issues. This is possible when you change the code in your theme and use conditions and dynamic scripting accordingly.

Steps to Stop JS for Certain User Agents in Magento 2:

Understand User Agents User agents are strings sent by browsers or devices to identify themselves. For example, Chrome sends Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/91.0.4472.124 Safari/537.36. Use this to determine which scripts to block for specific user agents.

Edit the default_head_blocks.xml or requirejs-config.js Locate these files in your theme. These control how JavaScript is loaded.

Add a Conditional Script Loader To target specific user agents, inject a condition into your JavaScript loader. For example:

Html Code: <script type="text/javascript">

    var userAgent = navigator.userAgent;

    if (!userAgent.includes('YourTargetUserAgent')) {

        // Load your script dynamically

        var script = document.createElement('script');

        script.src = 'path/to/your/script.js';

        document.head.appendChild(script);

    }

</script>

Replace 'YourTargetUserAgent' with the string you want to target, like 'Trident' for older Internet Explorer versions.

4. Use a Custom JavaScript File Create a custom JavaScript file (e.g., block-script.js) in your theme's web/js folder and include the above logic there. Update your requirejs-config.js to include this file:

Javascript code: var config = {

     map: {

         '*': {

            blockScript: 'js/block-script'

         }

    }

};

5. Exclude Using Server-Side Logic (Optional) Use Magento's PHP server-side logic to conditionally inject the script only for certain user agents. Modify the default.xml file in your theme:

Xml Code:

<block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="conditional.script" after="-" template="Magento_Theme::html/conditional-script.phtml" />

6. Test Thoroughly Test the targeted browser or user agent after implementation to ensure the script is blocked as expected. The user agent can be checked using the browser developer tools or online at whatismybrowser.com.

Benefits of Stopping JS for Certain User Agents

Improved Performance: This saves your site from unnecessary script execution for irrelevant or outdated user agents, and it loads faster with fewer resources.

Enhanced Compatibility: Avoid potential problems with unsupported browsers by stopping scripts that may not work, making it easier to use across platforms.

Better User Experience: Optimizing scripts for modern browsers pays off in performance and cleanliness for most users, aligning with their expectations.

By implementing this strategy, you can enhance the functionality and performance of your Magento 2 store as well as effectively serve most of your audience. It is a smart way to balance compatibility and performance on your eCommerce platform.

While all three are tools used in Python programming, they serve distinct purposes and are not typically used together in a single data collection pipeline.

Understanding the Tools

* Selenium: This library primarily interacts with web browsers. It's ideal for handling dynamic content, JavaScript-heavy websites, and complex user interactions like filling forms, clicking buttons, and scrolling.

* Requests: A simpler library for making HTTP requests. It's efficient for static content and doesn't interact with browsers.

* Scrapy: A powerful framework built on top of libraries like Requests (or others) for large-scale web scraping projects. It provides features like item pipelines, item loaders, and robust error handling.

Combining Selenium and Scrapy

While not directly combined, Selenium can complement Scrapy for specific scenarios:

* Dynamic Content: When a website heavily relies on JavaScript to render data, Selenium can be used to load the page and extract the fully rendered HTML. This HTML can then be fed into Scrapy for parsing and data extraction.

* Complex Interactions: If a website requires user-like interactions (e.g., logins, clicking through pages), Selenium can automate these steps before Scrapy takes over for data extraction.

Typical Workflow

A common approach involves:

* Using Selenium: Load the webpage, interact with elements, and obtain the fully rendered HTML.

* Converting to a String: Convert the HTML to a string format.

* Feeding to Scrapy: Create a Scrapy spider that processes the HTML string as a response.

Example Code Structure

import scrapy

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

class MySpider(scrapy.Spider):

name = 'my_spider'

start_urls = ['http://example.com']

def __init__(self):

self.driver = webdriver.Chrome()

def parse(self, response):

# Use Selenium to load the page if needed

self.driver.get(response.url)

# Perform Selenium actions if required

html = self.driver.page_source

# Create a scrapy response object

scrapy_response = scrapy.http.TextResponse(url=response.url, body=html, encoding='utf-8')

# Use Scrapy to extract data from the HTML

yield from self.parse_item(scrapy_response)

def parse_item(self, response):

# Your Scrapy parsing logic here

pass

def close(self, spider):

self.driver.quit()

Key Considerations

* Performance: Selenium can be slower than using Requests directly. Use it judiciously.

* Anti-Scraping Measures: Both Selenium and Scrapy can trigger anti-scraping mechanisms. Implement appropriate measures like delays, random user-agents, and proxies.

* Error Handling: Robust error handling is essential in both Selenium and Scrapy to ensure data quality and script reliability.

In conclusion, while Selenium and Scrapy can be combined for specific use cases, it's often more efficient to use Requests directly within Scrapy for static content. Selenium is best suited for handling dynamic content and complex user interactions.

JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages used for web development, known for its flexibility and wide range of applications. However, like any other programming environment, developers occasionally run into errors that can be puzzling and frustrating. One such error is the "TypeError [ERR_UNKNOWN_FILE_EXTENSION]: Unknown File Extension '.javascript' for c:\xxxx\xxxxx\xxxxx-xxxx\xxxxxxxxx.javascript". This article will delve into the causes of this error and provide solutions to resolve it.

Understanding the Error

The error message "TypeError [ERR_UNKNOWN_FILE_EXTENSION]: Unknown File Extension '.javascript'" typically occurs in Node.js environments. Node.js, a runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine, allows developers to execute JavaScript code outside of a web browser. However, it expects JavaScript files to have a specific set of extensions, primarily .js.

When Node.js encounters a file with an unfamiliar extension such as .javascript, it throws this type error because it does not know how to handle it. This is a strict file extension checking mechanism to ensure that only known and supported file types are processed.

Common Causes

Incorrect File Extension: The most common cause of this error is using an unconventional file extension like .javascript instead of the standard .js.

Misconfigured Module Loader: Sometimes, custom module loaders or bundlers may be misconfigured to process non-standard file extensions incorrectly.

Typographical Errors: Simple typos or mistakes in the file name or extension can lead to this error.

Toolchain Issues: Certain build tools or task runners may not recognize the .javascript extension, causing them to throw this error.

Solutions

1. Rename the File Extension

The simplest solution is to rename your file extension from .javascript to .js. This ensures compatibility with Node.js and most JavaScript development tools.

Steps to Rename:

Navigate to the directory containing the problematic file.

Rename the file from xxxxxxxxx.javascript to xxxxxxxxx.js.

On Windows, you can do this via File Explorer:

Right-click the file, select "Rename", and change the extension.

On macOS or Linux, you can use the mv command in the terminal:

mv c:\xxxx\xxxxx\xxxxx-xxxx\xxxxxxxxx.javascript c:\xxxx\xxxxx\xxxxx-xxxx\xxxxxxxxx.js

2. Configure Custom Extensions in Node.js

If you have a specific reason to use the .javascript extension, you can configure Node.js to recognize it. This involves creating a custom loader.

Creating a Custom Loader:

Create a file named loader.mjs.

Implement a loader function to handle .javascript files.

Use the --loader option when running your Node.js application.

Example loader.mjs:

import { readFile } from 'fs/promises'; export function resolve(specifier, context, defaultResolve) { if (specifier.endsWith('.javascript')) { specifier = specifier.slice(0, -11) + '.js'; } return defaultResolve(specifier, context); } export async function load(url, context, defaultLoad) { if (url.endsWith('.javascript')) { const source = await readFile(new URL(url), 'utf8'); return { format: 'module', source }; } return defaultLoad(url, context); }

Run Node.js with the custom loader:

node --loader ./loader.mjs c:\xxxx\xxxxx\xxxxx-xxxx\xxxxxxxxx.javascript

3. Adjust Toolchain Configurations

If you are using build tools like Webpack, Babel, or Gulp, you may need to configure them to recognize and process .javascript files correctly.

Example for Webpack: Modify your webpack.config.js:

module.exports = { // Other configurations... resolve: { extensions: ['.js', '.javascript'] }, module: { rules: [ { test: /\.javascript$/, use: 'babel-loader', }, ], }, };

4. Check for Typos

Sometimes, the error might simply be due to a typo. Double-check the file extension and ensure it is correctly typed.

Conclusion

The "TypeError [ERR_UNKNOWN_FILE_EXTENSION]: Unknown File Extension '.javascript'" error can be easily resolved by renaming your file to use the .js extension, configuring a custom loader in Node.js, or adjusting your build tool configurations. Understanding and addressing these issues will help maintain a smooth development workflow and prevent such errors from disrupting your projects.
