Paste data from webpage to textarea of another webpage (.JS)

[gasyoun]

#14 is still an issue, I spend a lot of time instead of fixing errors reproducing steps that are rather easy to automate with http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13874205/pasting-data-from-one-webpage-to-textarea-of-another-webpage-using-javascript Any chance? Would do myself, if only there would have been a javascript course at my literature institute.

When you have 'bulk' corrections to make, why not submit them to me in some 'bulk' way rather than the one-by-one way required by the Correction Form. I looked at your video in #47, and saw you have this table:

Since you are correcting headwords, you have all the information I need to check and implement the corrections present in the table above.

Just send me a text file like above, (or a link to such a document in some repository), and I should have all I need.

Why don't we try that approach with your next batch?

[gasyoun]

Sure, but that does not makes the JS unneeded. So you might add a note about batch submission at the end of the correction help file. The bad (?) part is when I browse for old mistakes. Nothing comes in return. Can't we return the date when it was fixed? Sounds too hard? Because otherwise I'm not sure if I should cut the word in parts and search for suffixes and prefixes or just in another dictionary. We can't make on search in all headwords of all dictionaries, can we?

[funderburkjim]

We can't search in all headwords in all dictionaries, BUT

All the requisite data is available (Union of Xhw2.txt for all dictionaries X, except probably mwkeys.txt for X=mw).

It's just (HA!) a matter of creating a coordinated list.

[gasyoun]

But before that should be done we should fix most headword issues. Too bad there are still plenty of mistakes in them. How about a smart Python script that does it on the server? Because there will be many more updates in the headwords anyway.
And could there be a .torrent link to all the download .zip's with all the contents? It takes a day to download everything in parts, thanks.

I try to extract:

1. L number
2. headword (in SLP1)
3. main entry text
   but indexcaller.php is a frame and does not show in the code any of the content I'm looking for. Any idea where to look?

P.S. How about duplicates in the "coordinated list"? I hardly imagine the unification. I would do it whatever time it requires, but the steps remain unknown to me.
