Quick Cookie Click

Any browser that supports JavaScript will pop an alert with the current cookies from the domain currently displayed if you enter this in the location bar:

javascript:alert(document.cookie)

Handy if you don’t work with JavaScript or cookies enough to have a web developer tool bar installed.

Cross Domain AJAX on FireFox…Sort Of

At least, how to run it locally. Explained well at http://blog.dirolf.com/2007/06/enabling-cross-domain-ajax-in-firefox.html

Delicious Deviation

If you are like me (and I am realistic to know that the odds are really against that), you could care less about visitors to your blog that have Javascript disabled. There is really just no reason for it, with 99.99% of browsers supporting it. So, if you want to save a few bytes and just have a clickable icon for your Delicious tag, here is my version:

src=”http://static.delicious.com/img/delicious.small.gif”
height=”10″ width=”10″ alt=”Bookmark this on Delicious”
style=”cursor: pointer; vertical-align: middle”
onclick=”window.open(‘http://delicious.com/save?v=5&noui&jump=close&url=’+encodeURIComponent(‘’)+’&title=’+encodeURIComponent(‘’),’delicious’, ‘toolbar=no,width=550,height=550′); return false;” />
