<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #00ccff;"><strong><em>javascript: document.body.contentEditable = 'true'; document.designMode = 'on'; void 0</em></strong></span></p>

You can even share a screenshot of the same with your client for approval. It only takes a few seconds. To go back to the original website, click on refresh! You can also use this to proofread content on a website. After clicking on the bookmark, when all the text on the webpage can be edited, the browser’s dictionary starts working. All typos will be underlined. You can correct these mistakes from the back end.</span>
