How do you know if a page is stumbled? - One click to check it
StumbleUpOn, Blog, Tips & Tricks, Blah Blah Blah, Technology June 17th, 2007After posting How do you know you are really stumbled? on my blog, I got tremendous traffic from StumbleUpon.com.
So I have come up a simple small Javascript that you can just one click and check if the current page your are viewing is stumbled by someone. Feel free to use it for FREE. Here is the instruction.
FireFox Browser:
Simply drag and drop the “Stumbled?” link to your “Bookmark Toolbar Folder”. It will create a little shortcut for you on your FireFox Bookmark. Note: this option isn’t currently available for IE.
IE Browser:
For IE, you’ll need to use the following work-around to add this to your favorite.
Right-click on the “Stumbled?” link, then select “Add to Favorites” > “Links.”
Depends on your security settings in your IE browser, you might receive a “Security Alert” - “You are adding a favorite that may not be safe. Do you want to Continue?” Press “Yes” to continue.
You can trust the Javascript, it simply attach your current browsing page’s URL into the Javascript and open a new windows to StumbleUpOn review page. If the page has been stumbled before, it will show you the review pages.
Here is the original source code for the Javascript:
javascript:(function(){var a=window,b=document,c=encodeURIComponent,
d=a.open(%22http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/%22+b.location,’StumbleUpOn’,
‘location=1,status=1,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,alwaysRaised=1,width=800px,height=600px’);
a.setTimeout(function(){d.focus()},60)})();
If this trick helps you, please feel free to stumble it.
Thanks!

If you install the Stumble toolbar, you have a converstaion icon at the right side of the “Send to” button,just click on it and you’ll know whether the gage is stumbled.
Nice site you got here, please come over to visit me at avirtualexit dot com. See you.

Already visit your. Stumbled it already.
I use this bookmarklet on my IE browser which doesn’t have StumbleUpOn installed. So it won’t confuse me.

That’s a pretty cool tool. I just gave you a thumbs up. Have a great day.

I just read Gili’s response about the conversation bubble and it does do the same thing. Sorry for the second post, but it’s still a handy tool and for those of us that aren’t very observant at times, Thank-you.

Thank you for visiting. After I post the script, I found out the same thing. I even got a message from one of the stumbler who claim he had the similar script a while back.
What my script does differently is to open a new windows. I am glad that you find it.
