QR URL

This is a bookmarklet that will display a QR Code for the URL of the current browser tab. The purpose is to be able to quickly pick the resource up from a mobile device. I find this useful since I often tend to catch up with some readings I start in my browser from my mobile phone.

This bookmarklet currently uses the QRCodes generated by the Google API Chart.

Only tested in Firefox 3.6 and Chrome 11. May work in other browsers and versions.

Installing

You should create a new page in your browser's bookmark panel, and set the contents of the bookmarklet file as URL. Then, every time you click the bookmarklet when you arae on a page, a QRCode will pop up, which will point to the current tab's URL.

TODO

Currently the QR Code is displayed in an absolute-positioned div near the top. This is a problem when you are in a scrolled page, as you may not see the popup in your viewport. Gotta fix this
