GoToTitle is a script that allows a user to navigate to any page using the page title. Clicking on the page title will replace the title with a seamless editable text box (if you're not using {{DISPLAYTITLE}}), from which you can type in any page name. Clicking away or pressing Esc will make the box disappear. Pressing ↵ Enter will bring you to the requested page.

This has no advantages over the search box. If you find it easier to use the search box (even though it's less cool), then go ahead and use the search box.

Installation

English Wikipedia

Hint: It's much easier if you get ScriptInstaller, then navigate to User:Chlod/Scripts/GoToTitle.js and click "Install" at the top. Edit Special:MyPage/common.js or Special:MyPage/skin.js and append this to your scripts page:

importScript("User:Chlod/Scripts/GoToTitle.js");

Other Wikipedia Languages

Add this to the common.js file of your account on that wiki:

mw.loader.load('//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Chlod/Scripts/GoToTitle.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript');

This should work fine on all wikis, irregardless of whether it is a Wikimedia wiki or not.
