I am using Chrome for Android. If I have a bookmarklet saved as a bookmark, then I am able to run it by: 1. Typing its name in the address bar until it shows. 2. Clicking the upward-leftward pointing diagonal arrow next to it to load it into the address bar. 3. Clicking enter. I am *not* able to run a bookmarklet that I have saved as a bookmark by: 1. Opening Chrome's vertically-aligned three-dot menu. 2. Selecting Bookmarks. 3. Navigating to the bookmarklet's entry. 4. Clicking the entry. I don't want to run my bookmarklets using the first method. I want to run them by going to them in the bookmarks menu (like the second method). If I click any other bookmark in the bookmarks menu, Chrome will navigate to the page. I expect to be able to run bookmarklets from the bookmarks menu. Is it possible to run a bookmarklet on Chrome by selecting it from the bookmark?
