QR Code in browser scanner?

[Deleted User]

Ok I am wondering is there an app or android web browser add-on that will let you scan QR codes that are on the site ur on. Because I have noticed sites that many sites I go on to on my phone lately have QR codes linking to something or another.

Assuming you are browsing from your phone, have you tried pressing on the QR code? Many times they will link to the information that way without having to scan it. I've had mixed results - not every code I try will work, but many do.

Yea idk what is up I am currently using "Barcode scanner by ZXing Team" and also I am running Android 2.1 on my vibrant if that helps any.

I wonder if the "missing" link is really dependant on the browser you are using? Which browser are you using right now? Perhaps you could download another one and see if the code works in another one. Obviously there is the stock browser but people really like Xscope and HD Dolphin too (and they are stable browsers - not in beta).

Actually I have only used the stocked browser so far. If their are better ones out there I would not know about it.
