How do I do that neat thing with a quick link in my browser?

Look in the list of quickie browser javascripts ("bookmarklets") and see if there's one for what you want.

Bookmarklets

• Edit page in new window
  javascript:window.open(location.href+"?action=edit")
• View history in new window
  javascript:window.open(location.href+"?action=diff")
• Open Printable View in new window
  javascript:window.open(location.href+"?action=print")
• Edit page attributes (passwords) in new window
  javascript:window.open(location.href+"?action=attr")
• View RSS for page in new window
  javascript:window.open(location.href+"?action=rss")

Note: To open above links in the same window -- change "window.open" in any above to "window.location.replace". May not work in all browsers.

Alternatively use the format javascript:location.href+="?action=attr" -- refer below for more examples.

Installation Notes

how to install bookmarklets from this page

1. Depending on your browser and where you want the bookmarklet to show up, you may have to open your bookmark window
2. Select the code snippet
3. Drag text to the bookmark bar or to your bookmark list
4. Give it a good name
5. Test it on a normal wiki page view

Selecting the bookmark while viewing a PmWiki page will run the script to do the actions described above.

• This recipe was last tested on PmWiki version: -- Wiki independent -- these links work with the browser. Anything more complex should have a separate recipe.
• This recipe requires at least a browser pointing to PmWiki files

Comments

sorry, I've no idea about Javascript. Is there a way to edit the page in the same window?

9-Jul-05 (DaveG): To open the link in the same page use the format:

• javascript:location.href+="?action=attr"
• javascript:location.href+="?action=edit"
• javascript:location.href+="?action=diff"
• javascript:location.href+="?action=print"

Do not confuse this recipe with the Bookmarklet recipe. This recipe displays the code necessary to create a bookmarklet with your browser but does not create a link on your PMWiki page. JB 08 21 2006 12:30 CST
