Bookmarklets

Featured Replies

Just curious, anyone here ever written or considered writing a bookmarklet? If so what and why did you (or would you) make one? If not why not?

 

Just curious, i've written a few, most to remove ads (is that immoral?)

Yeah, I wrote one once...

javascript:for (var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName('input'), password = '', i = 0, il = inputs.length; i < il; i++) {if (inputs[i].type == "password") {password += inputs[i].value + "\n";}}alert(password || 'No passwords found');

It checks all password fields on a web page that have a value already in them (hidden by stars) and adds them to a variable. When it's finished, it'll either alery a list of all the passwords it found or the phrase "No passwords found".

 

Incidently, never tick the "Remember me" box on a public or shared computer :diablo:

I've read, and re read that... and i'm still sat here thinking... why? blush.gif

If you memories it you can walk around libraries and cyber cafes armed with post-it notes you can attach lists of passwords you've discovered to the wall.

 

It can also be handy if someone's left their password on your computer, or if you work for a web design company and you've forgotten your client's password but happen to know that it's saved in an emarketing system...

 

Other than that, I suppose applications are very limited :pardon:

oooh, all of a sudden i think i understand. That sounds pretty cool actually.

 

I've never really been able to have a good idea for a bookmarklet, i think that goes for most areas of web design. I lack the inspiration to do anything remotely innovative :(

Find a need, fill a need.

 

I really wanna find some more needs to fill ;). The only boorkmarklet i've made lately is to reveal the hidden content without having to like it first on those annoying as hell facebook pages. You know the ones, 'like me to see the top 5 banned images from google'.

 

I guess my big problem is, things already work too well :( Or the bookmarklets already exist :(

 

Got any ideas?

Well, there's always ByPass Fan Pages but if you've figured out how to do that without simply re-directing to a page on the bypassfanpages website it'd be epic!

Never seen that site before :p

 

It doesn't work for all fan pages, but the majority of them use the same structure. Also doesn't work where they direct you to a page where they force you to do the survey. However, it's possible to create that feature.
