Create a bookmark (called a bookmarklet because it is javascript) with the following location:
javascript:if (location.pathname == "/"); else if (location.pathname.charAt(location.pathname.length-1) == "/") location = ".."; else location = "."; void 0 This works in all browsers that I tried. When you want to go up. Just click on that bookmark. In Chrome this means you need the bookmark bar visible, so I'm hoping we can implement direct bookmark access soon for activating bookmarklets like these. The cleanest ways I'd like access to bookmarks would be either to have a bookmark icon (next to settings) or simply right-mouse click on the 'star' icon to get a hierarchical menu of all my bookmarks. - Itai On Dec 18, 9:12 pm, Subwired <[email protected]> wrote: > What most bugs me about the current browser paradigm is the back/ > forward history controls, although these are an important method of > browser manipulation it seems that while this is ok for surfing > sequential based layout and does not lend itself to grouped content. > As an example if you are to surf your photos on line you would usually > store them in albums, and then scroll though them one by one > sequentially. now say you have been through a couple of pictures and > you have realised that this was the wrong album you now have to find > the link on site to return up to the previous level or wade backward > two or three times to find the page that linked you to the album > originally.
