             Bug #: 37378
           Summary: mw.util.getParamValue( 'diff' ) !== null
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.20-git
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: JavaScript
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected], [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


The following links generates all a difference between revisions:

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/?diff
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/?diff=
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/?diff=0
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/?dif%66=0

The JavaScript function mw.util.getParamValue( 'diff' ) generates:

mw.util.getParamValue( 'diff', '?diff' )      // null
mw.util.getParamValue( 'diff', '?diff=' )     // ""
mw.util.getParamValue( 'diff', '?diff=0' )    // 0
mw.util.getParamValue( 'diff', '?dif%66=0' )  // null

The suggested usage in
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ResourceLoader/Default_modules#getParamValue

mw.util.getParamValue( 'diff' ) !== null

isn't suitable to distinguish between difference and normal view.

It should be possible in JavaScript to get the same result as in PHP.

A possible solution would be to transfer a normalized URL as string or object
in a wiki global with the content.
