Your situation sounds like a perfect use for a bookmarklet: a small solution for a small problem. Funny how things like that seem insignificant, but if you can streamline the process at all, you save yourself a lot of time in the long run. "Work smart, not hard." Anyway, kudos!

“Work smart, not hard.”

Anyway, kudos!

Per our discussion, I've updated the bookmarklet to test for the existence of a particular div ID that signifies a Plone-based site. It now properly directs to the correct development environment. There's nothing anyone has to do; the javascript file the bookmarklet references has been updated, so there's nothing the user has to install or change. By the way, you've got a nice site over at <a href="http://www.yellowbutton.com/ " rel="nofollow">http://www.yellowbutton.com/</a> Other suggestions? Joel, this was a great suggestion!

I notice that this doesn't work for content on the UW's new Plone site (where http://www.washington.edu = https://uwplone1.cac.washington.edu/uwmarketing/). I'd love to have a second bookmarklet (www2uwplone?) for toggling back and fourth with that development site. Or maybe you could add an if/then clause to make your current bookmarklet direct either type of request to the proper place? Nice work.
