Bookmarklets are just javascript code saved as a bookmark.  There are
sites out there with bookmarklets to download - you might be able to
find a "Go to selected URL" that works better on one of those.  Or, if
you know javascript just go to your bookmarklet menu and right
click-properties on the selected URL one.  The code is all in the
location.

it looks something like:

javascript:
if(frames.length>0) {
  alert('Frames!')
} else {
  ulBV3pQy=document.getSelection();
  if(ulBV3pQy!='') {
    location.href=ulBV3pQy.replace(/\042/g,'').replace(/\047/g,'').replace(/\s/g,'')
  } else { 
    alert('Select text on page like:\n   http://www.domain.com...')
  }
}
