Soon
we'll roll out an HTML rewrite across all of the imageboards. The
design will remain the same, but the underlying HTML/CSS has been
rewritten from scratch. It is HTML5/CSS3, and validates with the
exception of a few CSS hacks for cross-browser compatibility.
We've
made these changes with you in mind. Our existing HTML is about /ten
years old/, and is a hodgepodge of tables and spans. The new HTML should
be much easier to parse, and when benchmarking the official 4chan
Chrome extension, we found that it parses approximately 600% faster.
Please visit
>>>/htmlnew/
to see the changes. We've tried to include every test case for things
you'll see in production. Read through the posts to see some of the
notes we've made pointing out specific changes.
In addition, CORS
is now supported on www.4chan.org and sys.4chan.org, with an origin of
boards.4chan.org (HTTP/HTTPS supported). And the new code is a
responsive design for mobile browsers.
The new code will probably
be rolled out some time this weekend. If you maintain an extension,
userscript, or archiver, please make your updates as soon as possible.
Feel free to send feedback/questions to newhtml@4chan.org.
