Question for Mac browser geeks
Friday July 9, 2004 – 6:56 pmRob? I mean, whoever? In OS X is it possible to create a bookmarklet (favelet) on one’s desktop? They work fine for me inside my browser toolbar, but I can’t seem to drag those little things to my desktop. Any bookmark with an ordinary http: URL works fine; I drag it to the desktop and a .webloc file is created. But when I do the same thing with a bookmarklet, which begins with javascript: instead of http:, the resulting file is a clipping of the text of the bookmarklet, rather than a .webloc file. Does OS X even have a built-in handler for a javascript uri? I couldn’t find anything when I looked for it using RCDefaultApp.
