[Lift] Re: url encoded javascript
If you use jQuery it's even simpler:
jQuery.getScript(http://foo.com/js/markCurrent.js?marklet=1234http://foo.com/js/markCurrent.js?marklet=1234%27%29;document.getElementsByTagName%28%27head%27%29%5B0%5D.appendChild%28e%29%7D%29%28

This will create a script tag on the page and put a // ![CDATA[ in it

[Lift] Re: url encoded javascript
That would be nice, and would work on the page containing the link, but not
for a bookmarklet. With bookmarklets, the user drags the link to the
browser bookmark menu or bookmark bar. Then the bookmarklet runs in the
context of whatever page they're currently looking at.

thx - I'll keep an eye out for that. I think IE had a max url length of 2K

The basic idea is to use the bookmarklet to load and insert a larger script
-- so hopefully it can stay small.

Perhaps the bookmarklet could be kind of like a TinyURL... a durable, unique
URL that points back to your server. When the user clicks on the link, your
server can serve up as much as it needs to.

[Lift] Re: url encoded javascript
That's basically what the link above does -- hard to read in compressed
form. :-).
The server sends an arbitrarily script that's inserted and executed in the
document that the user is currently viewing. The inserted script does the
real work.
The marklet parameter is issued per user, for security/manageability. And
the server issued script is inserted into the head not the body to handle
frameset documents.
I suppose I could combine the requested script and marklet parameter into a
bitly url, but I'm not sure it'd save much. The script insertion code needs
to remain as part of the url so the browser will execute it without
navigating to a new page.
