Parse a URL?

#1

Post by BartHumphries »

There are only like 50 or so categories of stuff, right? Would it be possible to add "parse url" to the search box or something so that it takes a url then opens whatever it is?

For instance: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/stu ... r?lang=eng is Saints Vol 1, chapter 36. Who's in charge of the URL naming schema for the church and how do we get a list of the different categories? I'd be happy to help.

Hey Bart, not sure I follow what you are looking for here, but keep in mind that there is support for other languages besides English that we need to consider.

Hi Bart,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you are already using a browser, like Chrome, to view URLs ("Uniform Resource Locator"), so why not just use that browser to manage your Church URLs? Intellectual Reserve, Inc. would have to add a browser to Gospel Library otherwise (Hint to IR: or they could just pass URLs to the Windows default browser and then display it), and that seems to be a lot of work just so that we can complain about how Chrome is better!

Just a thought
