The "easy way" won't (doesn't) work.
Firefox thinks the location.href is "about:blank" until the page is
"loaded". ("accessed" and/or "timed out"?)
And that takes however long Firefox takes for a page to timeout.
Normally you get: (after some amount of time, usually at least several
seconds)
The connection has timed out
The server at userscripts.org is taking too long to respond.
The GmScript is loaded for the page, and apparently executes, but nothing
happens.
If I execute the code in a Javascript Shell window referenced to that page,
it then redirects.
So I'm not sure what's happening, although it doesn't matter, because who
wants to wait
several seconds for a page timeout.
Here is the GmScript:
// ==UserScript==
// @name userscripts.org archiver redirect
// @namespace http://www.whatever.tld/
// @description Redirect userscripts.org to Internet Archive Wayback Machine
// @include http*://*userscripts.org*
// @version 1
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==
sHREF = location.href;
if (sHREF.substr (0, 23) == "http://userscripts.org/"; ||
sHREF.substr (0, 24) == "https://userscripts.org/"; ||
sHREF.substr (0, 27) == "http://www.userscripts.org/"; ||
sHREF.substr (0, 28) == "https://www.userscripts.org/";) {
location = "https://web.archive.org/web/"; + sHREF;
}
(why is there no "Code" formatting in the Google Groups editor?)
