nice nice. I shuddered when I read your post because I was at battle today w/ a bookmarklet that I'm currently working on.

They can be a real pain in the ass.

Indeed. I basically test things out in firebug console.. Make sure it works.. then wrap it in some

(function(){
  // happy self executing anonymous function
  // to keep everything out of the global scope.
})();

Then use packer to minify it. and add javascript: in the front. Voila!

oh that is handy!

to add CSS classes, i usually select an element in the left inspection area- then right click on the white space in the right CSS editing area and click 'Edit Element Style'…

it works but your bookmarklet is much easier.

thanks!

Ah. I do that too many times, but sometimes I want a rule for ALL occurences of a class or something. When its not just limited to a singluar element. :)

Thought this was clever when I first read it, but didn't see the immediate need at the time. This morning I found myself wanting the ability, and I remembered you'd already worked out how… so now I've added your bookmarklet to my little arsenal, thanks. :)

But taking care of your mental health is too important to ignore, even if it embarrasses others close to you. ,
