Thoughts on Supercharging HackTheWeb

I am working to add a default action of “Remove” to mouse clicking.

Removing junk from a page is usually the first thing I want to do.
Also as I do “Remove” multiple times, speed and ease of use are key.

So the user clicks the HackTheWeb icon and moves the mouse to red-box an element on the page.

A mouse click and its gone!

Note: The normal keystrokes work as well.

jsbeautifier.org makes a vast difference to readability.

As I am working my way through some ideas for supercharging HackTheWeb, the lack of indentation on some of the code was becoming a serious drag.

Also I wasn’t making the most out of my IDE “Geany” as again indentation matters. 😆

Enter stage left with jsbeautifier, very nice and quite easy to use.

It did seem to insist on CR LF line endings, but that’s not a big deal.

 Update in response to a comment asking for more detail:

Note: I turned on the option to show line endings temporarily…

Fragment of my file before:

// create the main hacktheweb objectLF
var hacktheweb = {LF
resourcePrefix: "chrome://hacktheweb/content/",LF

Fragment of my file after:

// create the main hacktheweb objectCRLF
var hacktheweb = {CRLF
    resourcePrefix: "chrome://hacktheweb/content/",CRLF

As I said no big deal as I did a search on rn and replaced with n
