I am current researching on something and I need to create , lets say, two bookmarkets. If I need to read this article later then I just want to click on that bookmarket and it should tag the current open page with read_it_later tag.
The second bookmarket should do similar thing. This one is for watch_video_later.
I don't want any prompt or anything.
I looked around but could not find any working delicious bookmarklet. You can assume that my userid on delicious is dorelal.
Thanks
I must use delicious because there are other people collaborating on this one.
If you're using FireFox, get Read It Later add-on. It does all that and 100 other cool things.
Check out http://delicious.com/help/tools, there are bookmarklets and also links to applications / toolbars for various browsers

I am trying to get twitter feeds in to my shopify site. I want to get the feeds and style them as I want and thus cant use a app.
I know how to do it using PHP but can not use that code in shopify and looking for a way I can use OAuth in shopify and get the feeds. I tried the shopify docs but without an example its kinda hard to actually get my head around it.
http://docs.shopify.com/api/tutorials/oauth
Thats the link I am using as a guide. If anyone can direct me to an example which might be similar that would be awesome. (google didnt seem to be that helpful this time either)
Cheers
I know you said you didn't want to use an app, but can I suggest taking a look at Twitify? You can use custom CSS to style your tweets. Also see discussions about Twitify here and here.
Twitter changed their display guidelines and policies on embedding of tweets on websites in June 2013. One of the themes I used for a client earlier in the year had custom styling of tweets, and they have now changed it to use the official Twitter widget to meet the new guidelines. In fact, the images on the Shopify theme store show how it used to look before Twitter changed things:
And after:
I think using an app like Twitify would be the easiest way to deal with these changes to embedding tweets.
Thanx for the suggestion. I did take a look at that before I posted this question. This is a project for a client and I dont think getting a plug in is a viable option. Anyways I found a work around.
Hosted the file on a server and then accessed it. So that resolved the problem. :)
I used node.js to write the script and get the posts as required.
Cheers.
you can use the app for that Twitify https://apps.shopify.com/twitify or you can Embed a Twitter feed in your online store
Go to your Twitter settings.
Click Widgets to open the widgets menu.
Create a new widget, following Twitter's instructions.
Copy the embed code.
I may fall under the list of possible duplicates but still i could not find the answer according to my req.In my rails application i have some web pages with a link of print option.
Now what i need is when i click on this print ,i should get a screen shot of the current web page and a popup box to save the image .Is there any plugin available for the same.
Also any queries for code are welcome
Thanx
You could go for phantomJs. Where you can alter the page HTML, manipulate CSS, insert & call javascript snippets, the way you need it.
Good documentation available and also you can find great deal of help in stackoverflow-phantomjs

May i suggest that you use http://www.w3.org/TR/css-print/
if you want to make a screeenshot you have to work with the user env, so i suggest you look at this topic How do I take screenshots of web pages using ruby and a unix server?
For an event in a couple of weeks I'd like to make an web page/app which display tweets from a specific user, a specific hashtag and all #reply's at the first user in 3 boxes on the screen.
However I've never tried this. I want to use either .NET (C#) or HTML/CSS/JS since I'm proficient in those. Are there any libraries/API's I can use? Or is there an readily available freeware/open-source app I can use?
Have you seen TweetSharp?
Use Twitter's profile and search widgets. Profile for the first box, a search of the hash tag for the second box, and a search of to:username for the third box.
I actually just posted this as an answer to another question:
I just updated a plugin to work with the Twitter 1.1 API. Unfortunately, per Twitter's urging, you will have to perform the actual request from server-side code. However, you can pass the response to the plugin and it will take care of the rest. I don't know what framework you are running, but I have already added sample code for making the request in C#, and will be adding sample code for PHP, shortly.
The plugin makes a call to statuses/user_timeline, but you will likely want to look at statuses/filter or statuses/search, instead. All you will have to do is add your desired parameters (hashtag, replies, etc.) to the server-side code and it should work (with the addition of your security keys and tokens, of course).
Good luck! :)
i have a website, its to exchange links, files... to say it quickly it's my 'version' of twitter+megaupload,
Well, users add links all the time and so on, but i would like user be able to syinch his bookmarks from the browser to the ones he has at his profile of mywebsite,
Where should i look into?
Basically i need to be able to:
- Acces bookmarks file (1)
- being able to send the urls to my service ( 2 )
- maybe adding the login feature (in the future)
I was google'ing about this for ages few weeks a go and i kind of give up, because i'm ok with PHP and JS, but with this plugin languages i'm very lost. So i decided posting here, wich always brings positive answers
(1) - > I don't even know where to start
(2) -> i was thinking to have a website.com/auto_import_no_confirm.php?url=[URL] and put it in a for each.
how many different languages and extension files do i have to work with? I really need any kind of tip with point (1)
feel like?
-edit-
Just found This -> https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Code_snippets/Bookmarks
wich really looks like i need, but where do i place this code?
thanks!
Might not be a bad question, but there are too many subtopics raised to answer that. (And there is too much tagspam as well. Break up your question into PHP- and Javascript-specific tasks, when you have devised the general application scheme.)
But to get started, download similar Firefox extensions (.xpi) and unzip them to inspect the general structure. You'll find examplary code for bookmark handling and invoking remote APIs pretty quickly. And basically you only need Javascript for the extension itself. (It sounds like your extension does not need much UI.)
And there are many tutorials on designing Firefox addons: http://roachfiend.com/archives/2004/12/08/how-to-create-firefox-extensions/ or http://www.google.com/search?q=firefox+develop+an+xpi
The good news first, you won't need much more than javascript if you just want to access bookmarks and send them to a server, neither on firefox nor on chrome.
But still you'll have to make yourself familiar with the apis of the browsers and learn how to develop extensions.
However, both Mozilla and Google provide all necessary information on their developer sites.
For Chrome, this is a good place to start, you'll find the api for bookmark access here.
The Corresponding site for Firefox can be found here, with information on bookmark access here.
Now that idselector has been upgraded to RPXNow and you can't "just use" the selector code, what is a good replacement?
I want to implement OpenId on a new website that I am using, but the users are going to be just dumb when it comes to logging in unless I provide an easy way for them to.
As a reference, I will be using .Net Open Id for the background in an ASP.Net MVC web application.
EDIT
After some cheap thought, what about using the rpxlib?
Jarrett Vance made a "version" of open-selector that is much more developer/designer friendly.
This selector is different because it does not hide the markup details in javascript. Therefore, you can easily add new providers or rearrange the existing ones without digging into the javascript. The login form will still work for normal OpenID logins if javascript is disabled
The best of all, is that it comes with documentation, demo, and lots of images both cropped and as raw .pdn files (paint.net)
Jarrett Vance's openid-selector can be found here
(source: jvance.com)
PS: I would suggest reading this article before implementing RPX.
Another one to consider is http://code.google.com/p/openid-realselector/ (which is a rewrite/update of http://code.google.com/p/openid-selector/)
I have done an implementation with RPXLib and RPXNow, and it is really pretty straight forward.
I wanted to minimize the amount of work done in the OpenId format, and the RxpLib definately helped with that one.
RpxNow also has a nice feature of telling me new users, number of logins per day, etc...
I've made Open-selector, which you just add to your site and switches the regular OpenID box into a provider list and a username text input.
The code is pretty simple (in case you need extra customization) and there is an inline mode so it doesn't alter your original layout.
I was using that one, but then I found a few people using a different one which made me investigate, and I found this OpenID selector. There aren't any instructions per se other than the demo.html, but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out. Just include the css and js, then call the javascript function with the right parameter.
Edit about rpx: I chose to stay away from rpx because I didn't want to have a 'central point of failure,' and a site that isn't my own that users would authenticate to/through. It seems kind of counter-intuitive being that I'm using openid, but if you consider that the openid provider that the user is using as part of the user, then it kind of makes sense.
