(not sure if this is the ideal sub for this question; the code is from Gabe Wyner's fluent-forever.com/multi-search/)
q is the query (word or short phrase), e.g.
window.open("http://exampledic1.com/content/" + q); window.open("http://exampledic2.com/word/" + q + "/#en");
This works fine for sites like Wiktionary, WordReference, or Google Translate.
However, larousse.fr is adding some seemingly random numbers to the URL, eg
https://larousse.fr/dictionnaires/francais-espagnol/vérité/80589
https://larousse.fr/dictionnaires/francais-espagnol/mètre/50901?q=mètre+carré#701484
Without this number, one gets an error message because the Replacement Character U+FFFD appears for non ASCII characters (v�rit�):
https://larousse.fr/dictionnaires/francais-espagnol/vérité/
Does anybody know why this number is there? Maybe it is NOT random?
Is it to prevent automated queries?
