Bookmarklet not working with ScienceDirect

bwiernik

I am getting an error from every page I try to save using the bookmarklet with ScienceDirect.

Here is a sample URL:

Bookmarklet works fine on other sites. Not sure what else would be helpful to report in this instance.

Works for me from Firefox to server. What are you using the bookmarklet on/with?

Using it on an iPad with safari and chrome browsers.

I am having similar problems on my iPad

Using Safari I cannot always get to the "desktop" version of the ScienceDirect site and there doesn't seem to be a translator for the mobile version of the site.

There are sites that provide guidance on how to request the non-mobile versions of webpages

Usually this works. However, I find that many sites -- ScienceDirect is one -- that don't always comply.

With iPad Chrome I can always successfully request the non-mobile site. However, with the last several versions of Chrome for iPad it seems that I must leave the ScienceDirect screen to reach my bookmarks. Chrome allows me to successfully request non-mobile sites but once there, I cannot seem to have access to bookmarks and the bookmarklet. (I hope that this is operator error but I cannot find guidance online that helps.)
