View Full Version : Auto-scrolling in Safari browser

Hi, I'm a guitarist and I frequently visit ultimate-guitar.com to view tabs so I can play songs I like. Because my rig isn't set up near my computer, I've been using my iPod touch to view tabs- so I don't have to print out every single tab I want to play.

Problem is, I will be playing a song and then I'll have to stop and scroll down a bit so I can see the next part. Is there a javascript bookmarklet that's compatible with the iPhone Safari browser that would enable autoscrolling down so I can play uninterrupted (preferably in landscape mode)?

I've tried the bookmarklets located here (http://tim.theenchanter.com/2008/08/autoscroll-in-safari-firefox.html) and here (http://bookmarklets.com/tools/look/index.phtml) but they don't seem to work in the mobile browser.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

Thanks for the reply, but I'm not interested in jailbreaking my iPod. I'm just looking for a JavaScript bookmarklet that will do the job in the Safari browser.

Possibly mobilize page in Safari+?

That does get rid of some of the riff-raff on the site, but it doesn't address the need for me to make the page scroll automatically...
