Is it possible to give an simple example to use one of your fabulous function?

Hi, this module is still using HTTP as the base API url , so the example app doesn't work for me because Chrome blocks this request.

Also the API response format seems to be changed, so even when it gets the response it can't parse it.

If a quotation contains anchor tags, getQuotesForSection will strip out the text within the tag and the quote will often make no sense. Suggest retaining the <a> tags and pushing the text content, rather than the html, to quoteArray.

$(this).children().remove(':not(b,a)');
var $bolds = $(this).find('b');

// If the section has bold text, use it.  Otherwise pull the plain text.
if ($bolds.length > 0) {
    quoteArray.push($bolds.text());
} else {
    quoteArray.push($(this).text());
}

Pushing the jQuery text used as a quick way to remove the anchor tag while retaining it's contents, which worked out for me, but may have consequences I didn't forsee,

When getRandomQuotes causes Wikiquote to return this error, the error is sent to $.ajax's success function (as result), which tries to access its parse property, which is undefined.

success: function(result, status) {
        var quotes = result.parse.text["*"];
