Because I know my blog is a serious resource for so many of you, I made a bookmarklet for searching it.
Ok, so I made it for myself, but I figured I’d release it in case anyone else wants it.
UPDATE: As Bill pointed out, mine didn’t work in older browsers (I’m looking at YOU, IE7), so here’s a new version.
Simply right click on that and make it a bookmark. It’s handiest on the toolbar, but that’s up to you. If you want to test it, just click it like a normal link.
For the paranoid, here’s the code:
javascript:q = '' + (window.getSelection ? window.getSelection() : document.getSelection ? document.getSelection() : document.selection.createRange().text); if (!q) q = prompt('Search Topher's Blog', ''); if (q!=null) location='http://derosia.com/phlog/search/index.php?search=' + escape(q).replace(/ /g, '+'); void 0
Doesn’t work for my IE browser 🙁
I was so ready to steal your post!
And that seems to work fine!
