I noticed on the glossary tab of the ArubaOS 8.2 Web user guide that it clearly listed many (477 or so) terms and definitions. I thought these could make great study material.
- I had to first click each one of them and open the tab to show the definition of the glossary/dictionary term.
- After the items were expanded, I grabbed the source code of the glossary html element that contained everything within.
- I took the data into Dreamweaver (adobe product for webdev)
- I knew to get the data into a proper csv format for Quizlet I had to do some data manipulation.
- I couldn't add in commas to be the delimiter because some definitions had commas within them. I chose to use Tabs
- I replaced certain repeated <div> containers before the "term" with (^P) Linebreaks
- I replaced other certain repeated <div> containers between term and definition with (^T) Tabs
- Deleted all other Styling and HTML
- Copied text pasted into text editor and saved as a CSV
- Uploaded to Quizlet
I had to snip out about 10 or so messed up lines. But was able to make 477 awesome flash cards. :-)
