Corrine Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Need a scratch pad? A quick place to copy/paste text, images, etc? Its easy. Just open a new tab, paste the following in the address bar: data:text/html, and press Enter. Voila! You can save the file as an HTML page or bookmark it for quick access. This works in Firefox, Pale Moon, Opera and Chrome (not IE). via The Windows Club: How to use Firefox, Chrome, Opera as a Notepad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrine Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 I also learned from someone else that you can also create a new bookmark. Set the location to data:text/html,%20 and save it to your toolbar menu for quick access. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V.T. Eric Layton Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Pretty spiffy! That works in Chromium/Chrome, too, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
