Fetching Slashdot comments finally fixedSubmitted by veridicus on October 12, 2008 - 5:06pm.
Since Slashdot introduced their overhauled comment threading system our script to fetch comments has occasionally failed. For me the rate of failure has been around 1 in 10. I was certain it was some sort of HTML parsing issue in our Perl script. After a change to how the script handles paragraph tags it's finally working in cases where it was previously failing. Please let us know of any comments which still don't get pulled correctly. Simply paste the URL of the Slashdot comment below. Thanks! |
