Bookmarklet is a small JavaScript code which is saved on a browser's bookmark while bookmarking JavaScript: URL. It is a mini program that can be easily launched from the browser's menus or toolbar.
The code in a bookmarklet runs as if it ware a script on a page and can query and set document content presentation, and behavior. As long as a bookmarklet does not return a value, it can operate on whatever document is currently displayed without replacing that document with new content.
To create bookmarklet on your browser, either you can create HTML file containing JavaScript: URL and can bookmark it right clicking on the link and selecting something like bookmark link or dragging the link to your bookmarks toolbar or you can directly add new bookmark with add new bookmark option on the browser.
Here is a simple HTML code to create JavaScript URL link with a simple JavaScript code to display current time which I have previously mentioned on my previous post "How to Write JavaScript Function as URL in Hyperlink".
