Having trouble with the FF Bookmarklet in Chrome or other browsers? This is an updated version thanks to Micah and sizofroid. To make it easier to install, I'm now hosting it at my site, so you don't have to jump through hoops, you can just drag the updated version to your bookmark bar.
- Stephen Mack
For previous history, see these threads: http://friendfeed.com/friendf... and http://friendfeed.com/ffhacks... and http://friendfeed.com/ffhacks... and http://friendfeed.com/ffhacks...
- Stephen Mack
Yay! [update: uh, I don't see the actual bookmarklet on that page]
- lris
Hmm, what browser are you using, Iris?
- Stephen Mack
Chrome, Mac. Here's what I see http://screencast.com/t...
- lris
Well that's weird. Chrome on Windows is working for me. When you go to the FF tools page, is the button there visible for you?
- Stephen Mack
Yes it is
- lris
Iris, have you disabled JavaScript by chance? I had a coworker test with Chrome on his Mac and it was working for him.
- Stephen Mack
No. And I did have adblocker running but I disabled it for that site.
- lris
I love you.
- Melly #FForever
I love you too, Melly!
- Stephen Mack
Iris, hold on, gonna try something to fix it.
- Stephen Mack
I'm running Chrome on Windows if that helps, FYI.
- Melly #FForever
Iris, I changed how the image for the button was hosted. Did that fix it for you?
- Stephen Mack
Yay! I see it!
- lris
Yay! Hmm, you must have some pretty high levels of security set. All I changed was copying the image for the button from FF's server to mine.
- Stephen Mack
I am not aware of extra high levels of security. Maybe I'm accidentally extremely careful. :)
- lris
I'm sure it's no accident. :)
- Stephen Mack
Hopefully no one else is having any trouble?
- Stephen Mack
I added the older versions at the bottom, just in case there are any compatibility issues.
- Stephen Mack
When I saw "draggable" I first thought it meant the popup can be dragged around within the page, to make it easier to select images that it would ordinarily be covering up...like this old one: http://pastebin.ca/1323845 I am still using that one, but installed as a dedicated CustomButton. If you have the Firefox add-on installed, it's easy to install the button from here: http://appsapps.info/ff... What I would like to have is a combo of all the goodies into one awesome button.
- April Russo (FForever!)
April, that's a cool idea. I couldn't get the one you linked to work for me, though. I wonder if we can beg Micah to add that functionality into his version.
- Stephen Mack
I just did. ;)
- April Russo (FForever!)
Ah! I don't know about CustomButton, though. What is taht?
- Stephen Mack
Which one could you not get to work? The 1st or 2nd link? The 1st is instructions for modifying the official bookmarklet to use the drag & drop popup. The 2nd link requires the CustomButtons add-on installed in Firefox. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US... You'd just click the link on my page to install the button, then right click a Firefox toolbar, go to Customize, and add the button to where you want it, just like any other buttons found in that panel. This lets you put the button in areas you normally would not be able to stick a bookmarklet. I keep mine on a toolbar going down the left side of my browser window (All-in-one Sidebar).
- April Russo (FForever!)
2nd link. But I see what you mean, it requires the add-on. Does it work on Chrome or IE, or just Firefox?
- Stephen Mack
Compatibility:
Mozilla Firefox 1.5+
SeaMonkey 2.0+
Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0+
Mozilla Sunbird 0.8-0.9 / Calendar 1.0pre
KompoZer 0.8b1-0.8b3
Flock 0.7-1.5+ and Pale Moon (which is what I am using)
- April Russo (FForever!)
Bump due to recent discussion. Micah, it'd be great to incorporate that feature from April's. Heard that at least one user is having trouble with the new bookmarklet. How's it working for others? (Works great for me! My default browser is Chrome.)
- Stephen Mack
Working with Chrome, I'd say it works about 95% of the time really well. There are a couple sites where it just doesn't want to pull in the images, and sometimes the NY Times is tweaky, but both seem related to recent layout changes.
- Jennifer Dittrich
Mine still doesn't work. I wonder if one of my plugins is breaking it. I've taken to browsing in Chrome and copying the URL over to IE when I want to post something to FF.
- DB, Lil LB's Dad
It doesn't work for me: in Firefox (my default browser) it just brings up an empty box. As DB said, it might be a conflict with an extension, but I'm not sure which would be causing it.
- John (bird whisperer)
First off, thank you for this work. I'll test it out in a bit. I have a lot of browsers to test in, and I use XMARKS so it should just pop to all my different browsers.
- Eric @ CS Techcast
Bump for Janet.
- Stephen Mack
please add this one on "firefox social" https://activations.cdn.mozilla.net/en-US...

Hero!

doesn't work for me anymore, since the last couple of days.
- Lucretia, my reflection ൠ
Hmm, working for me. Anyone else having trouble? Lucretia, does it not work at all? Which browser?
- Stephen Mack
I'm having trouble with it on Chrome. same time period and I couldn't get to the site anymore to delete/reinstall it.
- Sir Shuping is just sir
Oops, my host is down. Stand by!
- Stephen Mack
sure. thank you :)
- Lucretia, my reflection ൠ
It's fixed now. So sorry for the problem. My host had shut me off for non-payment! (Because my credit card on file had expired.) Seems like they shut me off pretty quick, but they had tried to bill me last year and failed and then gave up but didn't bother notifying me about the problem until this year when they tried to bill me for both years.
- Stephen Mack
yay! (this just reminded me that I also have a hosting to be paid, so double thanks!)
- Lucretia, my reflection ൠ
It lives!
- Micah
works for me now! yay!
- Sir Shuping is just sir
It doesn't seem to be able to handle https web pages (with Windows 7 and the latest version of Firefox) -- is there a fix?
