Adding rich preview feature in web application developed using HTML 5 - javascript

When you send a website link in chat apps like WhatsApp or Skype, a small website preview will appear. I want to implement similar feature in my web application developed using HTML 5 and JavaScript. So if I have link, i want to show rich review for it on a div tag.
What needs to be done to achieve desired results.

These previews in Skype and similar programs are generated based on the meta tags.
Different applications/social networks use different meta tags for this. Skype, for example, understands the open graph meta tags: http://ogp.me/
There are many articles describing the process of writing meta tags. You can take a look at this two:
https://warfareplugins.com/open-graph-tags-twitter-cards-rich-pins/
https://moz.com/blog/meta-data-templates-123
What you would need is a renderer, that takes the link, parses the page, tries to understand the meta tags and renders the preview based on the meta tags.
Some of the open source implementations for open graph are listed here: http://ogp.me/#implementations

How do I preview my web page on my dashboard?

I am creating a dashboard with the AdminLTE template, and I have a list section in which I can change the colors of the different sections of my web page.
What I would like to know is if there is a way to generate a preview of my web so that the administrator user of the dashboard can see the changes there.
I think it should not be easy, but I would like to know if there are different ways to achieve that, or if there is a plugin that is helpful.
Currently my project is done in HTML, Javascript and PHP
You can use an iframe to show the preview of your website in the admin dashboard.
Just add an iframe tag inside the dashboard panel like this,
<iframe src="https://www.your_website.com"></iframe>
Tip: To deal with browsers that do not support , add a text between the opening tag and the closing tag.
Tip: Use CSS to style the (even to include scrollbars).

How to create a chrome extension code to extract ads from a webpage and save it as an html file?

I am developing a chrome extension for fetching ads from a web page. What I am trying to do is that:
My extension should look for HTML5 banner ads from the opened web page.
It should detach the ad code and save it to my computer as an html file.
The html file created should not depend on an external JS or CSS file. It means when it gets detached, the CSS or JS code attached to it should be detached and saved as a part of the html page (not a hyper link).
I was wondering if there are any existing libraries or open source plugins that do that. If not, can anyone point me in the right direction where to begin?
This won't directly pick out banner ads for you, you'll need to do that yourself, but all the functionality you're hoping for is available using content scripts.

body and head tags are disappearing

First off I am not a web developer and have little experience in coding. I am trying to validate my website on Google Search Console. The web developer isn't returning my calls and the CMS I am using is an old layout style system.
I can't verify my site when trying all of the console's method, since the coding already in place isn't accepting <head> and <body> tags. Every time I add an HTML tag, Google Analytics tag, Google Tag manager snippet, the system overrides any new additional tags I add resulting in not being able to verify my website.
Apparently, my website mira-center.com is not indexed by Google (I suspect by the developer) as it's not appearing in the search results when I type the company's name Mira Training Center.

Trouble in scraping from a page

Refering to the one of my previous question, I have to scrape reviews(all reviews) of a hotel, for example this hotel
With using BeautifulSoap, what I have done that I first get all the review pages links from pagination within the div having class BVRRPager BVRRPageBasedPager, and then scrape reviews from all pages.
Problem with BeautifulSoap is that the content in div.BVRRRatingSummary does not come along(try loaing that page with JS disabled)
I have scraped the reviews using Selinium but my client does not want to use Selinium because it loads full page with JS and images
I want to know that what kind of process they might be using to load review? And is there any way I can scrape the content in div.BVRRRatingSummary with BeautifulSoap?
You could try using firefox with the firebug addon. Open up firebug when loading the webpage and go to Net and then click on XHR. That will show you which json files are being loaded. You can then try to get those files directly and work with those using a library like simplejson.

Use a website template in my web application project in VS12

I am creating a web site and I was given a website template that has various html pages and javascript that my website will reference. I wanted to know if this is possible to add those files and reference them in my project or if I am going about this the wrong way.
First time building a website but I have experience building applications, just confused on the right way to go about this.
Add a master page to your website and replace it's html by the html of your template. add a content place holder in it so that controls can be placed in content pages. copy image, css , and jquery(if any) folders in website. if your css and images are not shown in design of master page then replace Image to ../Image in its html and source of css ../(your file name)
