Bookmarking games replay

Post by branan » Sun Jul 14, 2019 12:31 pm

This question if for Hagbard but the answer could interest anybody.

I would like to bookmark interresting games, for example the game identified by netspil1x 35355f343738335f73.

The direct URL for live game works:

http://aagenielsen.dk/hnefatafl_net_med ... 3738335f73

The replay found from http://aagenielsen.dk/visallespil_soeg.php works, but the direct URL guessed from HTML sources doesn't:

http://aagenielsen.dk/hnefatafl_replay_ ... 3738335f73

It seems the hnefatafl_replay_medklasser.php refuses to parse the URL. Could you help me please, Hargbard?

The actual games do not have direct links, but they can be uniquely identified by timestamp.

For example:
ChaolAibhne / branan. Historical Hnefatafl 7x7 (Irish Brandubh), 10 moves, 2019-04-20 10:50:36, black won (branan)

Thanks for the answer, even if I don't understand it.

Does it mean we can't bookmark an interesting game for later in any way?

I also discover the direct live game link stopped working once the game left My current games list.

One can note the timestamp of an interesting game and find it again by that.

I found a (pretty complicated) way to bookmark POST requests with bookmarlet. But I won't explain it there without your prior permission.
