Isn’t it great if you could edit just any website in the wild. I mean it. You can edit the content of any website. If you want to you can change this post you are reading right now and if you did not like it, you can delete it altogether.

Lets see how this can be done.

Open the site you want to edit and let the site load completely. Now with the page opened, hit the following in the URL bar of your browser.

javascript: document.body.contentEditable = ‘true’; document.designMode = ‘on’; void 0

There you go. Now click anywhere on the page and you can edit the text as if it is your notepad. You can also resize the images or delete everything at a time.

If you want to mak the page uneditable again, go to URL bar and hit escape. You will get the original URL which can b loaded now in the usual manner.

I guess you have realized that this is just fun stuff. Nothing will happen to the original site content, and all the changes you make are restricted to your machine only.

Enjoy the stuff. Change the Google homepage to include your name.
