Signal Boost: Signal Boost bookmarklet with user name tags for more sites

[personal profile] ljwrites posted: Signal Boost bookmarklet with user name tags for more sites
I made a fork/update to [personal profile] melannen's fork of [personal profile] astolat's signal boost bookmarklet, which adds user name tags for more of the sites recognized by the DW user tag. I also made small changes to the text generated by the bookmarklet.


So [personal profile] astolat updated the bookmark code again a few days ago, and then I updated it more, and then [personal profile] ljwrites updated it even more!

So now it
a) preserves html in the copied text (astolat);
b) works for some people it had been broken for before (me);
c)strips out multiple signal boost: prefixes in titles (me, sorry);
d) fails better with non-DW websites (me);
e) actually works well with a list of non-DW websites that are compatible with DW (lj-writes)
f) has slightly more best-practices formatting (lj-writes).

....at some point we're going to have to stop calling it a "tiny" bookmarklet. :D

I also updated the drag-and-droppable version I'm hosting on my website, if you're somewhere that making a new bookmark manually is too annoying, go here and use the link:

SignalBoost 1.4



(If I keep wanting to code things, I need to update my DW style next! Nobody let me do anything else! Even if CSS is the worst!)

Thanks for the explanation. I'll have to try it out.
