bookmarklet

Basic bookmarklet help

I want to create a bookmarklet that sets the page to be editable, that is, to run this code:

javascript:document.body.contentEditable=true;

When I made a bookmark of that, I could see that the page becomes editable very briefly and then the whole thing is replaced with the word "true".

Solution

  • Bookmarklets have to evaluate to void for the browser stay on the same page. Just end it with a void(0):

    javascript:document.body.contentEditable=true;void(0);
