About
I wasn't sure whether to place this in General Discussion or not but figured people here would use it the most, so if it gets moved so be it.
I've taken olivier renault's Chrome Extension and re-wrote it as a jQuery bookmarklet instead of pure JavaScript which works in IE (I think it doesn't work with older versions of IE at the moment)/Firefox/Chrome and probably others too.
If you don't know then a bookmarklet is basically a piece of JavaScript you save as a bookmark, and when clicking on it does javascripty stuff. In this case it parses your shopping basket and converts it into BB-Code for use on the forums.
The output pretty much mirrors Oliver's version apart from a minor change of including quantities of components on pre-built systems (usually 1x of each anyway).
The bookmarklet pulls a live copy of the backend JavaScript file each time it's run (apart from any browser caching going on) from Google Code so you should always have the latest version automatically; unless of course the bookmarklet bookstrap code (the bit you add to your bookmarks toolbar) itself needs updating in which case you'll have to delete/reinstall it.
