XHR as a solution to detach page https://fraidyc.at/s/

[sjehuda]

Before you start.

• I have checked the Rejected Features page.
• I have searched the issue tracker for a feature request that matches the one I want to file, without success.

My great idea for Fraidycat is:

Good evening, kickscondor!

My name is Schimon, and I am the creator of a feed renderer which has been made in JS-only.

It was initially XSLT, but due to some - intentional - corruption of the XSLProcessor by the Gecko company, I have switched to DOMParser.

My greasemonkey script generates (X)HTML page from a parsed XML file.

To achieve this in a standalone, so to speak, manner, I have utilized XMLHttpRequest.

Please see https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/465932-newspaper-html-feed-reader which not only generates HTML pages on-the-fly, for a lack of a better word, but it also has a set of documentation concerning to syndication, and, obviously, Fraidycat is also featured.

This is a visual demonstration of it.

There is also a settings dialog i na form of an HTML page.
