you can do this in Address Bar/Awesome Bar But not sure if searches bookmarks or just history.

Thanks for trying, doesn't work!

I can see that other people have tried to remedy the relative inaccessibility of bookmarklets from within Firefox. This add-on, for example, puts them in a context menu

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bookmarklets-context-menu/

Again, though, I think they should be available the same way that all the other bookmarks are available. If you have a bookmark with the title "News" and you type News in the address bar, you'll get your bookmark. Likewise, you could have a bookmarklet called "News"...but there'd be *no* way to get to it unless you pulled down the bookmark menu.

You might have an easier time testing the issue (and understanding the issue) if you had a bookmarklet saved in your Firefox. There are some tips on where to find bookmarklets at

Anyhow, thanks for continuing to investigate.

You can toggle this pref to false on the about:config page.

• browser.urlbar.filter.javascript = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.

Not sure talking about the same thing....

From the Firefox Toolbar Menu/Menu Bar Click Bookmarks then Show All Bookmarks There is a search bar right there for searching your bookmarks.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

Both these last two solutions are *getting there*...although it still seems as though it should be easier (i.e., it's not clear why bookmarklets -- which are stored in the same way as bookmarks -- should need to be searched for in a totally different way than bookmarks).

cor-el's suggestion is exactly what I suspected might be in the config somewhere, but didn't know where. This solution does make it possible to search bookmarklets from the address bar -- but bookmarklets are still less searchable than bookmarks. If you type the name of a bookmark, by name (not just by URL), in the address bar, it will show up among searches. Per my earlier example, if there is a bookmark called "News," it will pop up when you type News.

Even after I make cor-el's change, however, bookmarklets are not similarly searchable, though. If I type "News," it will *not* find a bookmarklet called News. The address bar will only find a bookmarklet called News if you start typing the *actual bookmarklet*, e.g., "Javascript:void..." and so on). Which is...not bad...but doesn't it seem that the same behavior should apply to bookmarklets that applies to bookmarks -- i.e., you should be able to type the name of the bookmarklet (not just the actual script) and it should be able to find it among one's bookmarks...?

I appreciate Pkshadow's attempt as well. It *is* possible to search bookmarklets by showing the bookmarks first. But that seems even more absurd, somehow: if you can search bookmarks+bookmarklets by *name* when you hit shift-Cmd-B (i.e., within the bookmark menu), shouldn't you be able to expect the same behavior when you hit Cmd-L (i.e., within the location bar)?

Thanks again for your thoughts!

Way to go! Fixed in Firefox 57.0.

New behavior: when you type Cmd-L (to get to the location bar), then start typing the name of a saved bookmarklet (by *name*, not by the actual code), it will show the saved bookmarklet. So per my previous example, if you've called a saved bookmarklet "News," and you type News in the location bar -- that saved bookmarklet will be among results.

Problem fixed. Thanks all.
