No problem steve,

You will get that message if the site has already been recently pinged (alot of the bigger site’s are).

I used ctrl-d then changed the location. It did nothing.

I then deleted everything before the http in the location (javascript:location.href=’). It worked great-one time. LOL

Then I got the following message:
Slow down cowboy!

It would not let me ping another site.

Nice script though. Thank you very much.

I struggled briefly too – then I realised the issue – there are two types of bookmarks in Firefox you can hit CTRL D and it will bookmark the current page – however to get this excellent ping trick to work you need to right click on Firefox toolbar and add new bookmark – only then can you paste in the script. If you use the top menu in Firefox called “Bookmarks” it will only let you bookmark the current URL.
Answer is to right click in the Firefox toolbar area under the search etc…

Hope this helps.

Hey James,

Let me see what i can do in regards to a screen capture of how to set this up.

Also on a side note this same code has been ‘used’ in several ebooks that ive purchased and seen more recently and also has even been re-molded into a $49 product that does 1 little extra thing and uses a strategy i teach for free… Weird how people miss the good things when they are free but rave abut them when they have to pay for them.

Hey Tom,

Still haven’t managed to get this to work!

I created and saved the bookmark with the code above, but when I click it nothing happens?

Is there any chance you could do a quick screen capture showing how to do it correctly, then how it works?

Cheers

What do you mean it is not a script!? It cleary says Javascript in the code???:-)

Here is what I have done…Opened a new tab, then bookmarked it. I then right clicked on the saved bookmark, and selected “properties” A box popped up, in which I changed the “location” to the code you provided. I have saved that, and when I click the bookmark, nothing happens, no matter what page/site I am on.

Have I done this correct, or am I misunderstanding something? I have firefox by the way.

It’s not a script!

Create a new blank bookmark and then edit it and paste in this code. Then add it to the firefox bookmarks toolbar and then you just press it and it will ping the page thats open at that time instantly!

Make any sense now?

I don’t understand how you use this? Do you bookmark this script, then click on the bookmark when you want to ping the page your on? If so how do you bookmark the script?

Crikey, this looks like clever shit.

Will bookmark this and return shortly when I need it.

Thanks!
