Above: Safari splitted by two. Done with bookmarklet.
There is a way to quickly run short script in your Safari web browser; It's by using bookmarklets. Bookmarklets are bookmark items and bookmark items are not limited to only url address; We can also make short javascript function as bookmark item by simply dropping the favicon to bookmark bar.
Some examples of bookmarklets for you to have fun with :
CSS Killer
With a single click, you can disable stylesheet of the current page of your web browser. It's nostalgic to see webpages without any styling, isn't it? And here is the javascript.
Note: To use it, drop the link to the bookmark bar.
Colors Zapper
Say goodbye to colors, single click on this will disable all color styling for currently viewed page.
