I'm looking for a function that can pull information from one torn page and insert it into another. I've been doing the lessons on codecademy just to see if the topic is covered but neither the javascript nor jquery lessons cover the idea of scripting across pages. Googling the the topic didn't turn up anything that i thought was relevant. My ideal script works like this
// Gather item totals from items.php
// create an object/array with said totals
// display totals in a div on museum.php
|
A few scripts i have seen posted here gather users' "last action" from their profile page and that essentially what i'd like to do with items . I just dont know where to get started with the function.

I don't really think this is the best forum to be asking this question. Since the authorities on scripting are well known why not just PM one of them? XOR and Cyberdude come to mind immediately.

Scripting is by no means illegal. This sort of script is simply manipulating data that is already on the page
I want to take flower totals from items.php and (re)place them on the museum.php page

The question that springs to mind at my end is why not just post a suggestion regarding having the counts for each flower type added to the flower set conversion museum page in the suggestions forum, instead of messing around trying to get a script to do it.

Okay.. we will start off with:
Easy Way:
1) Install jQuery into your scripts. I use jQuery v1.6.2 as some later versions DO break torn's JS. Linky: jquery.com/
2) Use a $.get(url, action); as the way of loading data.
For example, user visits museum.php, and the script kicks in.
Use this for your includes:
// @include https://www.torn.com/museum.php
// @include http://www.torn.com/museum.php |
And then for your main code:
alert('This occurs first');
$.get('/items.php', function (itemsHtml) {
alert('This is the last 500 characters of the HTML for items.php');
alert(itemsHtml.substr( itemsHtml.length - 500 ));
// Do the rest of your stuff in here.
});
alert('This is a second alert box. May be 3rd or 4th depending upon the GET request time.');
|
That's pretty much it.
Because the GET (and POST) requests are asynchronous, you will have to take care to ensure that all your code runs IN the get request, when dealing with the data from that GET request.
If you want to see a script do roughly what you're trying to do...
My museum exchange script already loads the data from items page.
Linky: userscripts.org/scripts/show/132479
-=EDIT=-
For those saying scripting is illegal...
Scripts are legal!
The difference between *you* loading the items page, and a script doing it...
is the script makes it easier and more automatic... leading to no mistakes.
Now when these scripts bypass security, or even "Do stuff without being logged in (Xerxes)".. then it's illegal.
Also: Any automatic sending scripts (Without user's performing any actions) is 100% illegal.

Thank you XOR Your script does just what i wanted to do. No need to reinvent the wheel i guess. I am going to peek inside and figure it out though.

I create them.
You can check my scripts lists, they are on my profile.
Or you can check out Cyber_Dude (May have spelt name wrong) for his script pack!

Incorrect.
Scripts are designed to make things quicker/easier. That's the whole point of them.
The *only* possible illegal section of the script is that it automates the reading , and usage, of RFCs.
The the script itself is a manual thing. It only exchanges the flowers, and only when the button is clicked.
Therefore, it allows the user to quickly exchange flower sets.
Not, have it automatic.

So this would count as a legal script then? (see below message thread - bottom to top)

id say yes, as you can go to the post office and see whats inside a parcel, but if it shows an actual SED where you changed the item (if the option is still available) then im not sure

Scripting is not illegal, if it were your browser would be guilty. You are not changing any data on the website, just changing how your computer displays the data to you. It doesnt give any advantage other than ease of use.
Its fine. I think it gets shady when people try to use automated scripts to perform actions in the game. You cant to that.
