On iPhone bookmarklet only adds bookmark, there is no option to add as web archive. Is this working for others? Being able to add web archives on the iPhone is important for me, as in Instapaper, for reading webpages when no 3G/Wifi Connection.

Workaround for unsynced bookmarks.
If you have the ShoveBox bookmarket installed on your Mac/PC browser, select the properties of the bookmarklet. This will reveal the java code for the bookmarklet.
Copy this.
Paste in an email to yourself, or save it to ShoveBox.
Open the email/ShoveBox item on your iPod/Phone.
Copy the Java code.
Open Safari.
Create a new bookmark from any page.
Make bookmark editable.
Change name to something suitable, like “Shove It”.
Paste over URL with Java code for bookmarklet.
You are good to go.
Open a page that you want ShoveBox to record.
Select your “Shove It” bookmark.
And the code will do the rest.
Cheers.

The bookmarklet is designed for and tested on both the Mac and iPhone.

Can you tell me specifically what you’re doing, what you’d expect to happen as a result, and what you saw instead?

For it to work on the iPhone, you do need to have the ShoveBox iPhone app installed.

This bookmarklet works on the desktop but not on the iPod/Phone.

Is there also a distinction between a bookmarklet for shoving as a webarchive and shoving as a bookmark? Is there a suffix you can add to the current bookmarklet that makes it so you can use two bookmarklets next to each other in this manner? Because I read somewhere that you can choose in preferences how you want bookmarks to be shoved in general. It would be nice to have 2 seperate bookmarklets for these actions, without a dialog interfering with the workflow no?
