Re: Steam website does not play videos
Looks like the folks at Valve are now using optional chaining. Since they're not minifying the source, the offending code can be seen below:
Code: Select all
function ShowEULA( elLink )
{
var bSupportTabletMode = window.SupportTabletScreenMode && window.SupportTabletScreenMode();
if ( bSupportTabletMode )
{
// it's a better user experience on Deck if we navigate to the EULA instead of opening a new window
window.location = elLink.href;
}
else
{
var win = window.open( elLink.href,'eula','height=584,width=475,resize=yes,scrollbars=yes');
win?.focus();
}
}

I've already reported this to them but if other people want to do so as well would be nice. volume speaks for these companies.

Re: Steam website does not play videos
No, because it introduces ambiguity in the parser (what a "?" token is supposed to mean) and there's no real way that I know of to modify parts of the parser on the fly like that.
Perhaps loaded js can be pre-processed with an extension but it's not always straight-forward what ?. expressions should be replaced with.
