Key Difference Between Safari JavaScript Bookmarks and IE JavaScript Bookmarks
Authored by: Anonymous on Jul 22, '03 11:11:47PM

First off, thanks a ton for figuring this out and sharing it.

Secondly, for those following along at home, here's the key difference that makes this bookmark JavaScript work in Safari, where others did not: substitute every { character in your JavaScript with %7B, and every } character with %7D.

If you're importing bookmarks from NS or IE, make sure that you change this.

Now I can use my Everything lookup again!

javascript:q=escape(getSelection());if(!q)%7Bvoid(q=prompt('Search%20Everything%20for%20what?',''))%7D;
if(q)location.href='http://www.everything2.com/?node='+escape(q)
