[access-uk] Great tools

Hi all

I came across this site through Dean Martin's top tips email.  This site has 
many bookmarklets that help you deal with annoying web pages.

https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/zap.html

Here's what's on offer:
zap plugins: Removes java, flash, background music, and third-party iframes.
zap colors: Makes text black on a white background, and makes links blue and 
purple.
zap cheap effects: Neutralizes <marquee> and <blink>.
zap events: Removes event handlers, killing blind links and exit pop-up ads.
zap timers: Removes timers that were created with setTimeout or setInterval.
zap: Zaps plugins, colors, cheap effects, event handlers, and timers.
zap images: Replaces each image with its alternate text.
linearize: Linearizes the text of the page and removes most non-text 
elements.
printer friendly: Finds and follows a link to a "print-friendly" version of 
a page.
zap presentational html: Removes most presentational attributes and tags 
while leaving style sheets intact.
zap style sheets: Disables all style sheets.
zap cookies: Removes cookies set by the site, including cookies with paths 
and domains.
zap white backgrounds: Changes white and near-white backgrounds to tan.
restore context menu: Fixes pages that disable context menus.
restore selecting: Fixes pages that disable text selection.
remove redirects: Changes redirecting links to go directly to the "real" 
target.
lowercase: Makes body text and text in textareas all-lowercase.
deleet: Makes 1337 5p34|{ somewhat more readable.
force wrap: Fixes table layouts expanded by very long words.
trigger rollovers: Triggers JavaScript rollovers, fixing most mystery meat 
navigation.

I can't say I know what all of these are, in fact I don't actually know how 
to use a bookmark.  You can guess from this that I haven't tried any yet.

Barry
