Everything seems to work perfectly now. Thanks for updating it.

Can you provide a URL that does not work?

In German, both the ,,Die Datei downloaden'' and the ,,von Spiegel-Server downloaden'' work on the links I've tested. Have you removed the old version of the script before installing the new version?

Edit:

There seemed to be an issue with the auto download feature. From my testing, v 1.3 should have the necessary fix.

If anything else isn't working, don't hesitate to mention it.

The first button is working but the download one is being ignored. My guess is there's a typo in you're released script.

This is an example of what is not being pushed now:

It's not working on German or Spanish, don't know about others as I haven't seen them yet.

Thanks for solving the "first" button for all sites.

The script has been updated so that it should work in any language. It searches the HTML code in addition to checking for specific phrases to determine which page the script is on.

Previously, this script only worked in German and English. I've also removed the page changing function after clicking the download button, and the pop up no longer shows up when clicking the download button.

Portuguese, Spanish and Russian first-level prompt buttons are not automagically pushed:

The script has been fixed. You don't even need to enter the captcha now. You can either automatically download and save right away or you can just click the download button right away.

Edit: There should be no dialogue box pop-ups any more, apart from the one asking for your preference the first time you run the script.

They've updated the page structure. I'll look into fixing the script.

This was working fine until I went today...now all that you get is 'Timer not initialized' on the page so they obviously got wise to this script and have rewritten their code...
Any chance you can rewrite yours too...?
Was great while it worked so thanks :)

The first time I go to deposit files with this script installed, it ask me if I want to allow the "automatic download of the file", I've selected "cancel", but it go to the download page anyway... Worst of all, appears the counter clock about three seconds, but then is replaced for the error "Timer not initialized", and doesn't show the captcha. What happen to this???

I've noticed that this script seems to be popular. This is probably because there aren't many other scripts for Depositfiles. Are there other download sites--like Depositfiles--for which people would like me to develop scripts? Some download sites may be under-represented on userscripts.org.

scollector:

Make sure that Greasemonkey is installed and enabled in Firefox (the monkey should be in colour in your status bar). When you click the install link, you should -not- get a download dialogue. Instead, you should get a Greasemonkey installation dialogue.

Loki, Please help me. I could not get this script run. When I press button "install this script", I got a message to save it. Then I double click to run it but it popped out with this message:

Script: C:\Documents and Settings|.....11630.user.js
Line: 99
Char: 33
Error: Expected identifier
Code: 800A03F2
Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error"

Bryan Reynolds:

Could you provide the URL of a download that does not work. I may have missed something, or the script may be broken for different languages, et cetera. If you provide an example URL, I can try to identify the problem you have mentioned.

I have not experienced the problem you described, so being able to see it firsthand would be useful for me.

Many thanks.

This script does not work. In fact if you leave it running on a download page it will INCREASE the timer due to the failed tries. Please fix!!

Sohi:

It should ask you your preference regarding automatic downloading on the first use of the script.

If you want to reset the option so that you're asked again for your preference, uninstall this script using the "Also uninstall associated preferences" option enabled. Then, re-install the script. The next time you use the script, it will ask you for your preference.
