Browser History Sniffing
Browser history sniffing is such a neat idea. I have to admit, at first I didn’t catch on to this idea. But when I did understand, the practical situations outlined in that blog post were very eye opening. I especially liked the OpenID example. And immediately, the Prototype way of getting all the links and processing them seemed simple to me.
HTML
<div id="testLinks" style="display: none;">
<a href="http://www.google.com"></a>
</div>
JS
$$('.testLinks a:visited').each(
function(link) { ... }
);
Sorry about the code formatting. I had counted on Markdown handling it nicely, but the Wordpress plugin apparently does not.
