Initial work on an Open Data button, to identify and highlight datasets which are not accessible.

Landing page for clicks

I've added a simple filter for the Twitter links (e.g. /entry/1), but clearly we had more in mind when we talked about this. Let's start putting together a clearer sketch of what users should be able to see when they click on a link.

Bookmarklet button

I've minified your initial code with Closure Compiler, but haven't manage to make it work due to quoting issues. The initial API and home page are checked in here: https://github.com/loleg/OpenDataButton-Server

Button gives javascript error in Firefox 26.0

Timestamp: 13/01/14 14:16:58
I've just tried to use the button in Firefox 26.0 and it gives this error.

Error: SyntaxError: return not in function
Source File: javascript:if(location.protocol=='https:'){return%20window.alert('Sorry,%20HTTPS%20websites%20are%20not%20yet%20supported%20by%20the%20Open%20Data%20Button%20:(');}%20var%20o=document.getElementById('odb-bkmlt');%20if(o!=null){o.parentNode.removeChild(o);}%20document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0].appendChild(document.createElement('script')).setAttribute('id','odb-bkmlt');document.getElementById('odb-bkmlt').setAttribute('src','http://button.datalets.ch/bookmarklet');
Line: 1, Column: 32
Source Code:
if(location.protocol=='https:'){return window.alert('Sorry, HTTPS websites are not yet suppo

This error is consistently reproducible.
This firefox is running on a 64-bit Linux installation.

Potential connection with OAButton

Different but with similarities - perhaps there are connections

PS: I know these folks and fellow Open Knowledge Foundation Lab'ber @andylulz is involved with it ...

Bookmarklet weighty & broken

Do we really need jQuery UI? I'm quite sure a bit of CSS would do the trick, the bookmarklet would be faster.. and it would work. Right now I'm getting .dialog() is undefined errors.

No action after clicking on the button

After drag and dropping the button to my Safary and Firefox bookmarks bars, it does not work. Regardless of what page I'm on, after clicking nothing happens.

Not sure how to figure out what is going on here. There are no warnings, no error messages. When I open the "Show All Bookmarks" window, I can see the button's address is:

javascript:document.getElementsByTagName('body')%5B0%5D.appendChild(document.createElement('script')).setAttribute('id','odb-bkmlt');document.getElementById('odb-bkmlt').setAttribute('src','http://button.datalets.ch/bookmarklet');

When I click on this "address" in the "Show All Bookmarks" window than it works.

Potential connection with IsItOpenData

Possible connection with IsItOpenData app: http://www.isitopendata.org/

Project was "retired" last year (currently just static) but is in process of being rebooted - see rufuspollock/ideas#41

Secure sites cannot be bookmarked

Secure websites do not allow script injection, so the button does not work. We need to figure out how to detect this and offer an explanation to the user (alert box or so).

Work on web application

The bookmarklet submission now works, the data is saved. Time to make it useful :)
