Bookmarklet problem with safari (windows version)

Amir Michail

Hi,

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 #.

Any workarounds?

Are you using the new beta version of Safari just released for Windows
OS? If so, you might want to wait a while before you get too
concerned. There likely will be several changes in the final version.
I just came from alt.html, and people are reporting various problems
with this new beta release. If others are having your problem, then
someone needs to bring it to the attention of those working on this
new Safari version. I wonder if those having a final version of Safari
on a MAC have the same problem, or if this is just a bug for the new
Windows beta version. I do not have a Safari on a MAC, so I can not
test this for you.

If the Mac version of Safari (1.x and 2.x) are anything to go by,
then the bugs will probably remain. It's the worst browser ever
made. Mosaic 1.0 was better at handling DHTML that Safari is.

Bookmarklet for random url

by: Martin | last post by:

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...

Convenient way for Windows XP Internet Explorers to add my Javascript Bookmarklet?

by: Robert Oschler | last post by:

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?

Problems with ASP.NET 2.0 menu with Safari

by: dpomt | last post by:

Hello, I am using the ASP.NET menu control and I have two issues when the page containing the menu is displayed in Safari on Mac OS X: 1) The menu is not dynamic. Why (it seems that Safari is treated as downlevel browser)? 2) I run into the "DynamicMenuStyle" bug (see http://weblogs.asp.net/dannychen/archive/2005/11/21/431121.aspx) Any ideas when this bug will be fixed?

IE6 Nesting Problem?

Hi. I am trying to get some javascript to work in IE6, from the address line. It works in Firefox and, I believe, IE7. It appears that with some number of nested structures, the code does not execute. Take a level or two out and it works. The code below is nonsense, but illustrates the problem. This works: javascript: for( a=1;a<=10;a++ ) { for( b=1;b<=10;b++ ) { if( q<1000 )

Is there some kind of test site that will show how a page looks rendered by Safari? If not -and I can't find one with my web search- how do you pros do it?
