Permission to include this in Better GReader?, replied by Gina Trapani

Awesome, thank you!

I do prefer the GPL license, but some people like open licenses without any stipulations (like the GPL's "share-alike" requirement). Ultimately it's up to you... here's a little something I wrote about this:

Yes, no problem.

You mention that my code isn't explicitly licensed for reuse ; indeed I never thought about it... What kind of licence suits you best ? is GPL ok ?

Hi,

I'm the author of the Better GReader Firefox extension, and I was wondering if I might include this excellent user script into the extension--with full credit and attribution to you, of course.

A user requested it:

The extension is here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/...

Thanks for considering it!

Can't see the Print Buttons, replied by Julien Gilles

The script is linked to the address http://www.google.com/reader/view/*
Perhaps you are using a reader on another domain, try to update the filter in the parameters of GreaseMonkey.
Anyway I prepare another version with "htt*://www.google.*/reader/view/*" as filter.

So I've installed the script. But I don't see the print buttons. What am I doing wrong?

I couldn't do better than referring to ::

I have confirmed the problem is a race condition like I described above.
I think you will only see it if you have a lot of feeds to load. Firefox allows the greasemonkey script to execute before Google Reader is finished loading the ‘viewer-footer’ element, and this causes the linksContainer to be null.

I can add that the code brakes in the next line when the if-sentence is skiped ::

linksContainer.appendChild(printButton);

and I would say due to linksContainer is not found

Great extension, impatient waiting for it

Hi Julien (and anyone who's experiencing this problem).

I've worked out how to fix this problem (seems to work) and posted the solution on my blog. However, I'd really like an official solution, as you'll understand how it works much better than I do. If you let me know when you release an official fix, I'll change my post to point to it.

Thanks for Google Reader Print Button - I can't live without it!

Hi Julien,

It seems that Google have updated Google Reader (http://googlereader.blogspot.com/2008/12/square...).

As a result, the Print Buttons aren't appearing. Hope you can look into this soon, as I love this script!

Sorry, But it seems with recent changes, the code is some how broken. Two buttons that were beautifully added beside next and previous items, now occupy two row of the screen. Does anyone else experience the same problem? f yes, It would be great if Julian take o look on the code again. Many thanX :)

Want to get a title for the "Print All" page? Just add the following immediately after docprint.document.write('<head>');</head>:

docprint.document.write('<title>');
docprint.document.write(document.getElementById('chrome-stream-title').firstChild.text);
docprint.document.write('</title>');

I've created a simple hack to this script to allow you to print as many full text items (in the Expanded View) as you like.

Full details of the problem and the hack can be found here
