Download the attached file, rename it read.html and open it. Drag the "read" link onto your Favorites|Links toolbar, and acknowlege the warning dialog. Then, from anyone's page, click the "read" bookmarklet and read along with it.
My basic premise is that vowels and digits make for a place to pause momentarily (90ms) during reading. If it reads too fast or slow, you can adust the delay factor accordingly.
I would like to know if anyone has some javascript code that reads an external, arbitrary, XML feed, and can display the 2 or 3 latest submissions based on the XML src.
Is such a task even possible with just client-side javascript?
I need information (sure, i used google but couldn't find anything useful yet) about automating/adjusting Acrobat Reader using javascript. I need to print multiple documents without having to open them individually and selecting the print option on each document. I also need to adjust the user interface. Sometimes printing is allowed, sometimes it is not. So i need a way to disable (or remove) the print button from the default toolbar.
Anyone has experience (sample code) or documentation i can use?
How can I write javascript codes to interact with a smart card reader? I have found some activex controls and examples, but I think, it will be limited to IE only.How can I make it run in all browsers, if the card reader driver is installed, and the hardware is available for use?My problem is to make sure that the user puts his/her own smart card in the reader unit before he signs up in a website (a particular website, that I will be coding for).
I've run into a problem trying to get data from a usb card swiper into a web form. I know this is possible as I've seen it work, but don't know if javascript is the correct solution or not(i'm a php developer).
I have a submenu that expands over the adobe pdf reader addon/plugin. See this basic exampleI need to make it so that the menu stays above the plugin. Currently, parts of it are cut off.After some research I came across the idea of placing an iframe below the submenu to force it to stay on top. As the topic suggests this is called an "iframe shim" and I have been some what successful. See this basic example one submenu is shown on page load because i plan to take screen shots of it) The only problem is that it doesn't work in opera. I have tested it in chrome and firefox and they are working. I can't test it in ie8 at the moment because the plugin for some reason just won't work on the page, however i have tested the approach before and it did work in ie
I have a table Data gridfield.jpg and I want to scan bar codes in a field (Jobe_code) and after that this code would be copied to a empty field on the gried.
I have a bookmarklet which copies a marked set of characters into a searchpage in our dictionary. If nothing is copied, a window opens where you can type a word.
BTW, it is for firefox 2.0.
javascript:s=window.getSelection();if(s=='')for(i= 0;i<frames.length;i++){s=frames[i].document.getSelection();if(s)break;}if(!s)void(s= prompt('some text.',''));if(s){test=open('URL/search.pl?searchphrase='+escape(s));test.focus();} This works well.
We have another search /command which needs to be finished with &search= after the searchphrase
searchphrase="here comes the markedtyped set of characters"&search=
Can anyone of you help me changing the bookmarklet or point me to a site where I can read more about this?
I've found examples of bookmarklets that select a URL from a page at random, but I'd like one that generates part of the URL at random.
If you have a bunch of images that are named: mydomain.com/images/abcd.jpg where abcd is can be any combination of 4 lowercase letters - is there a way of having the bookmarklet generate the letters randomly when clicked?
I'm able to do it using AppleScript & Safari but would like it to work from within Safari - which is missing the "Scripts" menu that most Apple apps have :(
It looks as if bookmarklets are the only option, but I've only ever used javascript to select randomly from existing arrays of images and don't fancy typing in the names of a couple of thousand images...
When publishing bookmarklets, we put the bookmarklet code in anchor tag like this:
<a href="javascript: alert('test');"name </a>
Some characters of the code need to be escaped. For example, double quotes need to be escaped as %22 like in this example: <a href="javascript: var doubleQuote = '%22' alert(doubleQuote);"> name </a>
Question: Is double quotes the only thing that need to be escaped?
I have seen examples of escaping spaces as %20, but it seems unnecessary in most browsers i have used.
I'm using the following javascript bookmarklet for creating del.icio.us posts, and it works fine, but i've been trying to augment it with "document.getSelection" and have not gotten it to work.
the code is: javascript:q=location.href;p=document.title;void(open('http://del.icio.us/fogboy?v=3&jump=close&url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+'&title='+encodeURIComponent(document.title),'delicious%20',%20'toolbar=no,width=740,height=700'))
and it works fine (to test of course you'd have to change the del.icio.us username in there), except it doesn't have the "document.getSelection" syntax which would make it so highlighted text on a page was put in the "notes" field. i've tried about 5 different ways of writing that, based on other versions i've seen around. i would love to know exactly the right syntax to use to get this working.
I found this bookmarklet which I'm using in Firefox Would anyone here be willing to modify it to display its results in a new tab, instead of using the current tab?
Code: javascript:q = "" + (window.getSelection ? window.getSelection() : document.getSelection ? document.getSelection() : document.selection.createRange().text); if (!q) q = prompt("You didn't select any text. Enter a search phrase:", ""); if (q!=null) location=("http://www.google.com/search?num=100&q=site:" + escape(location.hostname) + " "" + escape(q.replace(/"/g,"")) + """).replace(/ /g, "+"); void 0
I have bookmarklets with a # in their urls but safari changes the # to %23. And unfortunately, the bookmarklet does not work with %23. You need to change it back manually to #.
I need this bookmarklet (below) to open in a new window and display the info there. It needs to work in both FF and IE. It would be in one line in the bookmarklet but I expanded it for readability. It should work against our site: [URL]
Its the "To English" bookmarklet as featured on lifehacker (http://lifehacker.com/5168984/to-english-bookmarklet-quickly-easily-translates-any-text-with-one-click).
I have found a script for opening all linked images of one page in a new window and displaying all images in full size inline. It works so far, however:
I want the images to be displays in the current window i am in instead of opening a new window.
I am trying to make a twitter bookmarklet that will tweet the current page, I currently have this code: Javascript:window.open('[URL]'+self.location) But when I try it, it changes the page its tweeting to just show [object Window].
I'm not very well versed in javascript. I'm trying to make a bookmarklet that when I click it will either append text to what I've already written or insert the predefined text at the cursor's position in a textarea. Also the browser I'm trying to do this on is Chromium.
Here's what I have:javascript:void((function(){document.getElementsByTagName('textarea')[0].value='ಠ_ಠ'})())
but this of course changes the entire value of the text field to: ಠ_ಠ ...rather than appending or inserting at the cursor position. I'm guessing append would be the simplest, though cursor position would be most efficient.
In pre-Windows XP Internet Explorer, adding a bookmarklet for a user was really simple. All I add to do was create a link that executed addFavorite().
Internet Explorer under Windows XP won't allow that due to its new security measures.
How can I make adding a bookmarklet convenient for my Windows XP IE users without having them to do surgery on their security preferences?
Right now I'm having them Ctrl-D to add a new bookmark. Right-click the new bookmark to get the Properties dialog, and then pasting in the contents of my bookmarklet. This is quite messy as you can imagine. In addition, when they save the bookmarklet, they have to hit "Yes" to an error box telling them that "javascript:" does not have a registered program associated with it, do they want to save the bookmark anyways?
