I know this thread is 4 years old so I probably shouldn’t expect the code to work, but if I just run it I get:

(This post is now too long for me too see what I’m typing in the viewport, even maximized to the whole iPad screen, and there’s apparently no way to scroll, so I apologize if I have typoes belowe...)
Perhaps my error is that I shouldn’t be running the script, but in some other way install it, as you do with extensions?
Even if this doesn’t work anymore, a different method would be welcomed—I read the earlier comment saying to tap the title to get a tree traversal, like with code view, but I can’t figure out how to do that for the documentation—unlike the code, where there’s a centered title up top you can tap the documentation has an interface without a title bar at top, the search box replaces it—and that search box searches globally through the docs. Right now I’m looking at a method and I want to see if the argument name mentioned here is discussed anywhere else, but argument names aren’t indexed so I can’t find them via the search, I need a “search in page”, but a hierarchy view might give me a clue.
The online docs, where I could use the ⌘ F in the browser, are problematic when I’m on VPN because the HTTPS link doesn’t work as the certificate has expired.
Thanks!
p.s. Ooh! “edit” works to get the viewport to the bottom though it doesn’t scroll up, so I’ll try to fix this mess now.... this is current Safari on current iPadOS 13 on an iPad Pro 10.5” using a Bluetooth keyboard, btw, since I assume this limitation isn’t universal!
