How Do I Get My Redirecting Script To Add A Random Suffix To Select Sites?

I've a userscript that redirects to a random site from a list. (Reference: How to redirect to one out of given set of sites?) How do I get the script to add a random suffix to sel

Solution 1:

Adding the random suffix, means that the script must change how it checks what site it is on -- as well as how it selects a new URL. So, for those sites, we must check for a partial match.

But, rather than explain every piece of it, here's a big bunch o' code. ;)   It should be a little self-documenting. :

// ==UserScript==// @name        Multipage, MultiSite slideshow of sorts// @match       http://*.breaktaker.com/*// @match       http://*.imageshack.us/*// @match       http://static.tumblr.com/*// @match       http://withfriendship.com/images/*// @match       http://failjudge.com/*// @match       http://wallbase.cc/*// ==/UserScript==var urlsToLoad  = [
    { url:          'http://www.breaktaker.com/albums/pictures/animals/BigCat.jpg',
      useSuffix:    false
    },
    { url:          'http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/8105/bigcats34ye4.jpg',
      useSuffix:    false
    },
    { url:          'http://withfriendship.com/images/g/33769/1.jpg',
      useSuffix:    false
    },
    { url:          'http://static.tumblr.com/yd0wcto/LXQlx109d/bigcats.jpg',
      useSuffix:    false
    },
    { url:          'http://failjudge.com/',
      useSuffix:    false
    },
    //--- Fur suffix URLs, include everything before the suffix only.
    { url:          'http://wallbase.cc/wallpaper/',
      useSuffix:    true
    }
];

/*--- Since many of these sites load large pictures, Chrome's normal or its
    "document end" injection may fire a good deal before the image(s) finish
    loading.
    So, insure script fires after load:
*/window.addEventListener (
    "load",
    function () { setTimeout (GotoRandomURL, 4000); },
    false
);
if (document.readyState == "complete") {
    setTimeout (GotoRandomURL, 4000);
}


functionGotoRandomURL () {
    var numUrls     = urlsToLoad.length;
    var urlIdx      = -1;

    for (var J = numUrls - 1;  J >= 0;  --J) {
        if (urlsToLoad[J].useSuffix) {
            //--- Check that URL starts with the specified valuevar prefChk = newRegExp ('^' + urlsToLoad[J].url, 'i');
            if (prefChk.test (location.href) ) {
                urlIdx  = J;
                break;
            }
        }
        else {
            if (urlsToLoad[J].url  ==  location.href) {
                urlIdx  = J;
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    if (urlIdx >= 0) {
        urlsToLoad.splice (urlIdx, 1);
        numUrls--;
    }

    urlIdx          = Math.floor (Math.random () * numUrls);
    var targURL     = urlsToLoad[urlIdx].url;

    if (urlsToLoad[urlIdx].useSuffix) {
        //--- Note:  wallbase.cc currently has less than 2-million wallpapers.
        targURL    += Math.ceil (Math.random () * 2000000);
    }                                              
    console.log ('\n\n***\n', targURL, '\n***\n\n');
    location.href   = targURL;
}
