Oh well, as usual, got sidetracked again from my other nearly finished macros, but came across that function and couldn't stop myself playing, and it grew, and grew, and greeeew... ;-)



SPLIT SCREEN IN 2 FRAMES - can contain the same or different pages.
Links open in their own frame, except if you click pseudo-SIDEBAR:
Then All LINKS clicked in frame-1 then open in frame-2

- The URL for frame-1 is the current page, the URL for frame-2 is chosen by menu:
Either the previously viewed page, OR last used split-URL, OR a preset-URL, OR a URL per input box
- Choose in options-menu on which side you want frame-2 by default: right, left, top, bottom
- Choose in options-menu a default size for the frames (% or pixel).
- Edit the macro to get own option-combinations in menu (e.g. preset URL, frame size+side, etc.)

That pseudo-SIDEBAR thing you find by right-click on a link.
That special function works only if splitting in the same tab, not in new tabs.

Hi,

Stumbled upon a minor error in the console while I was checking out something else when disabling tabs. Line 376, change to:

$kTabs ? $_TabWin="Tab" : $_TabWin="Window";

Oops... Thanks for the info! :-)
So the split-menu isn't complete if TABS are disabled.

Will have to post an new file, for the moment just:
If anyone uses it, you can simply fix it yourself, just exchange the word "$_page" with "$_TabWin", it occurs just once in line 769 in file opensplit.kmm
Edit > Configuration > Macros (or User Macros), right-click on it and edit with notepad.

Fixed the download link, it was expired

There may be a problem with handling non-ASCII characters, does anybody else see it?

Steps to reproduce:
1. Go to https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B5%D0%B3%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%8F:%D0%A4%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BC%D1%8B_%D0%A1%D0%A1%D0%A1%D0%A0_1989_%D0%B3%D0%BE%D0%B4%D0%B0 ;
2. Right-click a link, and in the right-click menu, ask for Pseudo-Sidebar in the right frame;
3. Problematic result: both left and right frames open something weird, pages which do not exist in Wikipedia - just look at Категория:Фильмы СССР1989 года- probably wrong encoding;
4. Expected result: both left and right frames open normal pages which do exist in Wikipedia;

Opening link as usual (without pseudo-sidebar) works, of course. The problem happens even when I switch off Javascript, so I don't think it's Wikipedia's fault.

P.S. Problem solved by switching Encoding's Auto-Detect from (Off) to Universal. Then, everything works as expected. Still leaving the message here, in case somebody else has similar problem.
