Improve code sharing URL generator about compiler-explorer HOT 12 CLOSED

6816c58 tries to improve sharing a little bit with some compression. That doesn't give you a terrific ratio of improvement (2/3 after 1-2k size), but I think that was a low hanging fruit.

Thanks to a patch supplied by Malcolm Rowe we at least now have goo.gl URL shortnening. The pastebin stuff is a great idea but requires a little more support for things like XSS. I'm going to leave this open still as it would be really nice to have.

readonly stuff makes it looks awful with chrome, was that necessary?

How does it look to you? Looks just fine to me!

May be just make it a link instead of an input for intuitiveness?

when you move mouse over it to copy, mouse pointer turns into a no sign, select copy thing becomes ugly as well.

I couldn't capture screenshot with mouse pointer :) however your screenshot didn't show up as well in this thread.

How bizarre - what platform are you on? On my Ubuntu laptop the mouse
pointer is a regular pointer when over the permalink box.

This one is a Win7, aero pointer stuff. Apparently it is called unavailable

That's really odd! The URL really ought to be non-editable but that
shouldn't make the pointer unavailable. I'll check in with my HTML expert
and see if we can fix it. Thanks for reporting the issue!

Malcolm has supplied another patch which hopefully solves this issue! Let me know if there are still any issues.

from compiler-explorer.

I assume this was fixed by #47?

Closing; I believe it's fixed...
