<![CDATA[Bookmarklets Broken]]>My Javascript bookmarklets stopped working after I updated Opera to the latest version.

Version of Android: 62.1.3146.57513

Phone model and manufacturer: Multiple including Samsung Note 4 and S6, LG G4, Honor 8 and Motorola E2

Your version of Opera for Android: Multiple including Android 6., 7 and 10

If the problem is with a page, a link to it: NA

If ad-blocker is enabled or not: Issue occurs with it on and with it off

If data savings is enabled or not: Issue occurs with it on and with it off

A screen-shot of the problem if it's related to something not showing as should: N/A

A description of the problem, including as much as information as possible: Javascript bookmarks do not work. They did in previous Opera versions up to and including version v. 61.2.3076.56749. They also work in Android Chrome 88.0.4324.181.

Steps to (try to) reproduce the issue:
Create a new bookmark. Enter Tweet it in the Name field and the following code in the Address field:

javascript:location.href='http://twitter.com/intent/tweet/?text='+encodeURIComponent(document.title)+' &url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href);

(This will create a bookmarklet that share's the current page's title and URL on Twitter).

Open any web page in Opera. Go to bookmarks and select the Tweet it bookmarklet.

Expected behavior and actual one:
Expected: Twitter compose Tweet dialog opens with the current page's title and URI already entered.
Actual: Nothing happens at all.

I hope this issue can be resolved. Bookmarklets are an important part of my daily workflow. I use them for sharing to social media and updating sites I manage.

Can You please post us here to see;, the security concerns you talked about
and how come world largest browsers fronts as Google and Mozilla have not addressed these great issues,

where is bug or security bulletin reports on to Their and your mailing list related to the issue, so we can see, online what has been the talks about it,
great security issue that has been ignored by mayor browsers, that Opera took care of, by removing the greatly useful feature
that makes many functions in browser impossible,so we have to revert back to other browsers (and large community of information researchers) unless there is specific add on for our needs You can provide.

Here is the one of the bookmarklet's that we are interested of:
https://www.chrisains.com/seo-tools/extract-urls-from-web-serps/ (there is few more, that eliminate duplicate's of the urls extracted, sort the results, and group results )

What other features related to this can we expect to be one away, specific important ad-dons perhaps that do not work anymore as result of past 2 years improvements of security ?

Thank You
Margus Meigo

Is there any chance that bookmarklets can be white-listed or opted-in from the settings, instead of just disabling them outright?

Just stopped working. Tried re-creating the bookmarklet, but same exact result. I type "Email..." in the address bar, I see my bookmarklet with the title "Email This" that shows the address of "javascript...". I tap it, and nothing happens at all. Just started 3 or 4 weeks ago.
