 * BAD LINK REPORTER
   
   I've got a few too many projects on hand at the moment to continue cleaning
   up all the pages on this site myself. In order to try to focus on the more
   commonly run-into failures, I've added a "report" feature for bad links. If
   you find a bad link, please use the yellow warning icon that pops up when you
   hover over a link to report it. If you know where it should link to, please
   include that information in your report as well.
   I also need to store iframe/embed pages myself, as MDN has completely changed
   those; this will also take a decent amount of archive-searching and time,
   which I currently do not have.

 * SEARCH AND BAD LINKS
   
   There's a lot of bad local and remote links that need work. Don't bother
   trying to tell me about them just yet, I've got them all listed via script
   already and I'm handling them. In the meantime, I've redirected any 404
   errors to search results, so at least bad internal links will be less
   annoying.
   The search engine is a homebrew product which literally searches all 15,000
   HTML files with each query, so please be gentle with it. The results are all
   provided in bulk instead of per-page, so while switching between pages is
   instant, requests with lots of results may be very slow to load.
   Finally, links are being updated with two simple indicators: external links
   should now be a pleasant gold color, and WayBack links (archive.org) are a
   modest gray/silver. I will be working to clean up hyperlink tags after I
   actually get all the links fixed, but for now, be warned that none of them
   use target="_blank", so you'll want to open them in new tabs by hand for now.
   In the future, external links (including WayBack) will be
   auto-new-window(/tab), giving the color-coding further purpose.

 * MORE BACKED UP DATA
   
   I'm currently in the process of downloading all external files to this server
   in order to prevent lost third-party content. At present, all directly linked
   images should be hosted locally (even ones that have been lost on the
   official site - Thanks Archive.org!). I'm still deciding on whether I want to
   host embedded Mozilla-hosted content locally or try to make JSFiddles or
   CodePens to replace them. If any images fail to load or there's any example
   code that has weird image paths, please let me know.
   I'm also attempting to clean up some of the underlying HTML, replace uniform
   elements with PHP functions, and generally improve conditions for future
   maintenance. This is very much a work-in-progress, so please excuse the mess.

 * UXP SOURCE CODE LINKS
   
   The MDN Website still links to the removed ~xr.mozilla.org source sites,
   which can be really annoying when looking up interfaces. I've replaced all
   links to DXR's /mozilla-central/source/ with links to the UXP GitHub
   repository's master branch for now. Other repository paths to follow later
   on. There are undoubtedly still many 404s as quite a few features mentioned
   in the docs have been removed, either from Gecko in the past or from Goanna
   during its creation. However, the more common links to IDL files in the XPCOM
   reference and elsewhere should all now point to the XUL source code
   gracefully. Just be warned that line numbers have definitely changed since
   the Mozilla days. Happy hacking!

 * LOOK OUT FOR BAD FILENAMES!
   
   If you run into any missing pages with special characters in the URL (such as
   colons or asterisks), please let me know about them! During the cloning
   process, certain special characters were replaced with underscores, and need
   to be renamed by hand. Of course, you can try replacing the special
   characters in the URL with underscores yourself if you need to view a page
   immediately.

 * THE MDN WEB DOCS BACKUP
   
   This backup was created to prevent XUL documentation from being completely
   removed from the Internet. Please note that this backup is a trimmed clone of
   MDN from the end of August 2020. A cleaner, editable, organized version of
   this information will be put together soon. This backup will be retained for
   historical purposes, at least for now.
