It would be nice if [HTTP cookie - Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie#Secure_cookie) oneboxed the correct section, instead of the top section. > **[HTTP cookie | Secure cookie](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie#Secure_cookie)** > > A secure cookie can only be transmitted over an encrypted connection (i.e. HTTPS).

for fun and giggles **[jsFiddle Experiment | Getting wikipedia section content with ajax](http://jsfiddle.net/lid0/m320cwuz/3/embedded/result/)** > **[Edit fiddle - JSFiddle - Code Playground](https://jsfiddle.net/lid0/m320cwuz/)** > > JSFiddle - Test your JavaScript, CSS, HTML or CoffeeScript online with JSFiddle. utilizing the Wikipedia API ( [API:Action API - MediaWiki](http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page) ). To retrieve the section content with this approach I had to make 2 requests 1. get a list of all the sections of an article to identify its numeric id (needed for the 2nd request) 2. request of a particular section content based on the id. The bad The solution return the entire section and not just the first paragraphs as onebox appears to do. I was thinking that using the wiki api might make the process more efficient at least, but it is not additional processing is required to fix relative a tags - it also return some nonsense [edit] text my conclusion is that is probably better to just go with the current approach and use Nokogiri for section parsing 😄 ---

Technically my Dev environment is working but it is limping due to virtualbox issues. Hopefully the next virtualbox release will magically fix the bug I experience. But luckily the onebox can be worked as a standalone, wasn’t too much trouble to get it working on windows. ---
