Bookmarklet: Create Link to Selected Text Fragment

Deeplink to any text on the web


This bookmarklet allows you to easily link to (almost) any text on (almost) any webpage.

  1. Select some words.
  2. Click the bookmarklet to generate a link to that text deep down in the middle of an article.
  3. If you forgot to select text before clicking the bookmarklet, you can select it now.

Boom! The page will reload so you can preview the URL and make sure it worked correctly. If possible, the bookmarklet will also put the URL that links directly to the selected text on your clipboard.

Drag the bookmarklet to your browser’s bookmarks bar:

Link to Selected Text

(^^^ Or click it to try it on this page!)

Example: to highlight half of a word, you can put “high” in the prefix field and “light” in the text field.


Your link!
