Wanted: demo of how to rebuild this online page: http://harmoniouspalette.com/hylozoicExcerptsB.html
(The site was mostly built with 20yr old Dreamweaver, and most will be deleted after I can rebuild index with BSS).
I would like to pay someone to coach me to edit the needed code. A minimal keyboard workflow, maximum copy-paste work-flow is wanted. A 100+ links, with more additions will be added after coaching. Basic demo to be done on Zoom.
I used other apps to hack it from an auto-archive html, then pasted that into BSS and used AI Assist to greatly improve the hack, and then exported html above. Hopefully the main need is styling. Granted that some of the linked pdf file names have sneaky space typos, but I have a corrected folder to upload later, and for now I just need coaching on the first part of html. Later some help with file organization is also wanted.
Nothing fancy. Nested folders is hoped for. Payment offered through Paypal? (Visual Mac user here).
Added Question: What causes the auto-generated: “Index of /hylozoicExcerpts” to activate or open more of the links? http://harmoniouspalette.com/hylozoicExcerpts.html Than does the AI Assistant of BSS
On the harmoniouspalette.com/hylozoicExcerptsB.html page, almost all the links are broken.
Open your page, go to the Developer Tools, copy and paste the code below into the console, and press Enter.
const links = [...document.querySelectorAll('a')].map(a => a.href);
const checkLinks = async () => {
let countBroken = 0;
let countWorking = 0;
const timeout = 2000;
for (const link of links) {
const controller = new AbortController();
const signal = controller.signal;
// Set timeout to abort request after 2 seconds
const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), timeout);
try {
const response = await fetch(link, { method: 'HEAD', signal });
clearTimeout(timeoutId);
if (response.ok) {
countWorking++;
console.log(`${link} - ✅ Working (${response.status})`);
} else {
countBroken++;
console.log(`${link} - ❌ BROKEN (${response.status})`);
}
} catch (error) {
countBroken++;
const errorMessage = error.name === 'AbortError' ? '⏳ TIMEOUT (2s)' : error.message;
console.log(`${link} - ❌ ERROR: ${errorMessage}`);
}
}
console.log(`✅ ${countWorking} working links | ❌ ${countBroken} broken links`);
};
// Use IIFE to ensure compatibility in all browsers
(async () => {
await checkLinks();
console.log('All links are processed');
})();
Thanks so much for your posting! I located a console with Chrome browser and tried pasting, and after a…(quote follows)

Are these used, to replace html code and solve issues?

-At one’s own risk, are your procedures OK for people to follow in their own html?

Ah, now I see there is a “console” inside BSS, with the page dropped in… The word “console” did not come up in the search icons of BSS user interface, (and I’m using many apps and interfaces).
So is the fastest way to drop in the page and my folder full of corrected PDFs, and then correct one at a time?
I’m accustomed to manual stone and concrete labor which this sounds like, but
Thanks but nothing works on this end due to difficulties of communication, which is why I requested a face to face coaching session, which should provide visual accuracy of which buttons, where to pull them down, how are they used and what exactly is typed. I need to record it too and view it a few times. I replied to your Console posting saying this term or title was not found in BSS Documentation, nor with in-app search, so I googled it which perhaps looked bad, and we see this was a good reason for you to remove it from the postings. Very well, I appreciate that. I’m still looking for a solution while my meager funds hold out and hope to find a functional solution, which does not send me mistaken credit charges. I am low income here. I cannot even find how to change fonts, but most impotant is how to link lines of text, say without the underline part… On and on.
I had created an example page for you to review, but it’s no longer available. If you’re still interested, I can send you the .bsdesign file, and you can open it in Bootstrap Studio. If you’re having trouble with that, I apologize, but I may not be able to offer further assistance. Unfortunately, I don’t have a webcam connected to my computer, so a face-to-face conversation isn’t possible.
Odd – it seemed that more was visible on the original work file which you linked. I supposed the design file could be edited, and tried out with tool testing, but soon it was apparent that no links were in lower half of it, possibly by unexpected deletions, with auto saving? I never knew of autosave back to a forum too! It seems downloading again lost content. For decades we used disk saving each step with work files, CAD and texts. Never to keep erasing old work. If there are longer files with links that would be interesting, but value your time. I hope little time was lost as I had other updates on disc, beyond the URL, and I hope my posts did not mislead about fixing those typo errors on PDF file names. I was experimenting with ways to do that. I found using different fonts helped clear out white space. Coders deserve credit if they excel without spellcheckers for code.
Thanks again, I responded to another respondent.
Apologies for my30 year indifference to learning code after loosing what is now an inaccessible software and old OS too. After reflection on this post of earlier today, I deleted it realizing that enough was said already, and may this thread not detract from better threads. Thank you everyone for the time you spent and I’ll see if I can solve anything more on my own, as kuligaposten’s file might be a starting point to restructure a page with my original content, after figuring out each tool in the process, one by one. Thanks again.
