Hi MASA, I have updated the bookmarklet to take into account your suggestions.

The more you put into the bookmarklet, I think the less likely it is to work on different browsers. Especially IE6 has a hefty limited.

Something to take into account.

I think it would be better if you added so if the user hits cancel then the bookmarklet won’t do anything (currently it will still change the page even if you don’t want it too).

thus adding:

if(Qr != null){

before location.href

Please don’t duplicate the code here, as I worked on it already again and intend to keep the post on my blog updated.

P.S.
A link would have been nice.

I have updated the post with the latest bookmarklet. The first link (Phishy?) is the one.

Note: with the three different links in this post, I’m not 100% sure which is the “right” version of the bookmarklet. Are there two separate bookmarklets with different functions?

We’re listening… email me with more details on what you need from PhishTank here.

I expanded your check and added a “pretty” status page and made a bookmarklet that uses POST to submit the URL to circumvent GET limitations.

Check it out, and let me know what you think.

Cheers,

Try this:

javascript:debug=false;Qr=prompt(“Enter URL to check”,”");if(debug){window.alert(“Original: “+Qr+”\nb64: “+btoa(Qr)+”\nEscaped: “+escape(btoa(Qr)))};if(Qr != null){location.href=”http://checkurl.phishtank.com/checkurl/”+escape(btoa(Qr))};
