Thomas Paine sent in a few interesting Browser tricks. This time it's using Javascript to link Netflix to and from Rotten Tomatoes. By making the following scripts bookmarks, you can switch to the same movie on the other site with one click.
Here's the link from Netflix to Rotten Tomatoes:
Javascript:location.href='http://www.rottentomatoes.com/search/movie.php?
searchby=movies&search='+encodeURIComponent(document.title.substring(9,document.title.length));
And here's the link from Rotten Tomatoes to Netflix:
javascript:location.href='http://www.netflix.com/Search?v1='+encodeURIComponent(document.title);
Make sure you get all of the script in your bookmark.
"Buhusky" put together a zip file for Internet Explorer with both Netflix to IMDB and IMDB to Netflix scripts from the earlier posts (see, I do read all of the comments). You can download his fine work at:

I've got one for my own website if anyone would like to use it.
javascript:if(x=prompt('Movie:'))document.location='http://musicmademe.com/movies/jump2mov.php?moviename='+x
While my site isn't as thorough as IMDB and RT, I still think some may find it useful.

Whoops... make sure it's all one line in your bookmark, heh.

Hey,
I have tried the javascript IMDB->NF link and it works
fine, but the reverse direction, looking up in IMDB a
movie on Netflix's site, yields the message:
A search for "" found the following results
Is anyone else seeing this? Is there a browser version
required? (I tested on winXP using both IE and Firefox)
Thank you for taking the time in any case,
chahn

It is one of the most consumed vegetables in the world and reddens many dishes of our gastronomy. Tasty and indispensable in the kitchen, tomato encloses a paragon of virtue for health. Discover them.
