4. Bookmark 'marked' documents using the "Bookmark" button.
5. Copy link to the 'marked' document to the clipboard using the "Copy link" button.

LiveURLs usage

2. Select a portion of a web page and invoke the context menu (i.e. right click menu).
3. Select either "Copy position of selected content" or "Copy link to selected content". This action copies the LiveURL to the clipboard.

5. The browser should show the previously selected content highlighted.
6. The sender and receiver of the LiveURL should have the same version of the LiveURL extension installed.

Note to Users

The implementation of LiveURLs is not based on a standard yet and development of this extension is on-going. We do not guarantee backwards compatibility of URLs (LiveURLs) generated i.e. LiveURLs created with one version of the extension might not be usable/viewable with another version.
