Tumblr Scraper
Spider read tumblr.com in 1.9 s without a browser and returned 50 lines of clean markdown.
This is a wonderful point that I did not include in my initial post.**Here's an addition of how to add a footer that brings you to the end notes and then has another link to bring you back to the spot that you were reading (this works when downloaded as a PDF or EPUB). **This goes in the work HTML; <a href="#definition1" name="definition"><sup>1</sup></a>This goes in the Author Endnote (or wherever you want it really); <a name="definition1"></a>1. Translation text here <a href="#definition">Back</a>It will look like this on AO3. And when you press the superscript, you will be taken to the endnotes. At the endnotes, there will be a link that takes you back to the exact place of the superscript.Above is an example from a guide I made yesterday after the engagement on this post and reblogs such as the one I'm responding to. It goes into alternative HTML and some other basics.**Guide Here:** https://archiveofourown.org/works/46679146**AO3 also has some HTML stuff in their FAQ: **https://archiveofourown.org/faq/formatting-content-on-ao3-with-html?language_id=enAlso, in regards to accessibility. Screen readers will only read what is present on the screen, so the hover over text will not be read. I'd highly recommend using footers or just making sure to have your definitions in your author notes or story in alternative ways.Footers are also more mobile/tablet friendly since they do not have cursors to hover with. But footers can be tapped and used :DHonestly using a combination of all of these can be useful. Or you can just keep it simple. I love the aspect of customization and creating unique reading experiences. This is something that AO3 truly does allow for, which is awesome!#jensownzoo#AO3#Archive of our own#Guide#tips & tricks#writers#fanfiction@ahhhsami / ahhhsami.tumblr.comThe same call, in code.

Fields you can pull.
Spider names these from the page. The capture above came back as markdown; the same
call with return_format: "json" returns them as keys.
