Not working?

[dkblackhawk]

I can't seem to grasp why this isn't working right now...I am using it as a tab in Chrome to open in a new window and fill in the forms. Also is it possible to grab the title of the current page in javascript? Thanks

javascript:(function(){ window.open('http://sitename.com?title='+encodeURIComponent(location.href);&url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)); })();

When I click on the bookmark, nothing happens.

You have syntax errors. You can use a console (press [F12] in most browsers) to find this sort of thing. Decent code editors will also have syntax highlighting that makes simple mistakes like this obvious.

In this case,

• you have an extra semicolon after you urlencode the location.href,
• you don't concatenate the second and third strings, and
• you forgot the opening quote for the third string.

(function(){ window.open( 'http://sitename.com?title=' +encodeURIComponent( location.href )+ '&url=' +encodeURIComponent( location.href ) ); })()

Tested; works (though it's likely your browser's popup blocker will, well, block it).

Assuming there is a <title> tag, and that the first one is the correct one:

var title = document.getElementsByTagName("title")[0].innerHTML;
