The 960 grid system had a bookmarklet and essentially what it is overlay or what? Yeah, I just overlaid the Column so you could see how a website is laid out on the grid. So book marklets are JavaScript arbitrary JavaScript that gets run on a website when you press a button. You can do things like Select elements loop over them check if they have an alt tag apply some CSS to each of them. It's kind of handy to have this 10 15 lines of code every now and then and that's what a bookmarklet is.

In this Hasty Treat, Scott and Wes take Matt Busche’s suggestion and talk all about bookmarklets and scripts to modify or manipulate web pages.
