Today is Bell Let’s Talk Day, and like last year, I want to use it to help prepare myself for what is to come this year. I do that by coming up with a theme to follow for the year.
After several years of watching people use large Android phones, Apple released
their own larger phones this past October. Initially, I resisted diving in and
buying one. I was rather content with the size and the camera of my two year-old
iPhone 5, but then I started seeing the photographs
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
// Get all links in the document
const links = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
const currentDomain = 'foursides.ca';
const amazonAffiliateTag = 'four0b-20'; // Replace with your Amazon affiliate tag
// Process each link
Array.from(links).forEach(link => {
const href = link.getAttribute('href');
// Skip if link is null, empty, or just a hash
if (!href || href === '' || href.startsWith('#')) {
return;
}
try {
const url = new URL(href);
// Handle Amazon links
if (url.hostname.includes('amazon.')) {
// Remove any existing tag
url.searchParams.delete('tag');
// Add your affiliate tag
url.searchParams.set('tag', amazonAffiliateTag);
// Update the link attributes
link.setAttribute('href', url.toString());
link.setAttribute('target', '_blank');
link.setAttribute('rel', 'nofollow noopener noreferrer');
}
// Handle other external links (not Amazon and not internal)
else if (!url.hostname.includes(currentDomain)) {
// Add referrer parameter
url.searchParams.set('ref', 'foursides.ca');
// Update the link attributes
link.setAttribute('href', url.toString());
link.setAttribute('target', '_blank');
link.setAttribute('rel', 'nofollow noopener noreferrer');
}
} catch (e) {
// If URL parsing fails, it's likely a relative URL (internal link)
// Do nothing for internal links
console.debug('Skipping internal link:', href);
}
});
