iPhone Scroll To bookmarklet

Martin — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 20:08:44 +0000

Do you also get tiered of flickering your finger to scroll up and down loooong web pages? I was, so I wrote this JavaScript bookmarklet to do it for me. It enables you to enter a %-value where to (vertically) scroll on the page.

How to use it:

Just add and save a bookmark on any page. Open it for edit. Name it “Scroll to …” (or what ever) and paiste the JavaScript code below into the URL field.

javascript:window.scroll(window.pageXOffset,(prompt(%22Scroll%20to%20...%20(0-100)%22)/100)*document.body.clientHeight);

To use it, just select the bookmark from the bookmarks menu, enter a value between 0-100 (where 0 is the page top and 100 is the page bottom) into the prompt and hit OK.

Happy scrolling!

For you who are a web developer and would like to be able to “view source” on a web page with your iPhone Safari.
Create a bookmark. Edit it and paise the code below in the location field. Then when you want to use it, just click the bookmark, and you’ll get the source. Super easy!!
