iPhone bookmarklets

@aj

Thanks for the script. Even though the html didn't come through, I was able to reconstruct a notepad bookmarklet that lets me take notes on my iPod even when there is not wifi. Very cool!

I'm also putting together a Sudoku bookmarklet (based on a javascript version of the game available online) which would work on the iPod/iPhone without wifi. Does anyone know if something like this is already available?

This inspired me to create a 'notepad' bookmarklet for the iPhone/ipod touch. Hopefully the HTML below will survive this post.

How it works: you will need to serve this page fro m a webserver initially to get it into the iPhone.

After this simply press the save changes link to create a bookmarklet. Save this. Now you can create new notes as offline bookmarklets, naming them appropriately. In essence, it's a self-replicating web page that stores its state when it replicates. At last you can go into a meeting and take notes on your iPhone/iPod touch without having a wifi connection.

window.onload=g();
function f()
{
var e=document.getElementById('x');
document.body.a=escape(e.value.replace(/"/g,''));
var s = "";
s = s + ''+ document.body.innerHTML + '';
document.getElementById('y').href='data:text/html,' + s;
e.style.backgroundColor='yellow';
}
function g()
{
var e=document.getElementById('x');
if (document.body.getAttribute('a') != null) e.value= document.body.getAttribute('a');
}

Thanks Mark.

FTA: To use, just drag the links into Safari’s Bookmarks Bar and synch them to your iPhone via iTunes. Next, bring up the Bookmarks Bar folder on your iPhone and simply tap the bookmarklet you want to use.

How exactly do I implement this? For example, can I use find in page on any page I visit?

YubNub looks great. Exactly what the iPhone is missing. Thanks for the heads up.
