Wow, thanks for the thorough testing! Nice to know it's working with Apps and Offline!

@loofkid Hmm, I'm on 4.0.254.0 and it still acts screwed up. For me, the icon updates, but only when I take an action (like scrolling down and loading new stories, or clicking on a new feed). And the icon count does not stay current with the actual count in the title (where it's pulling the data from).

Are you experiencing this, or is the icon staying in sync?

the google reader favicon count script seems to be working in Chrome 4.0.249.11, if that tells you anything...

Working for Gmail, Gmail Apps, with Offline or no Offline access installed. Bravo!

Nope. I'm running the Chromium Nightlies to test and have yet to see any dynamism in the icon. I'll keep trying. I noticed that Chrome OS has some crazy favicons. My not-so-secret wish would be for them to port them on over to the Chrome browser, but as of yet they have not.

any luck?

google chrome's dev channel recently added a feature that automatically converts user scripts into extensions, so it would be extremely convenient to install this script, once it works

Sweet! Thanks for running the script! Hopefully Gmail will keep the DOM stable for a little while now. :)

Thank you so much for fixing this script. I literally (and I know it sounds like a cliche) was lost without it since I have FavIconized my Gmail tab and was stuck constantly going back to it every few minutes to check for new messages.

I am running FF 3.5.5 under Windows XP SP3 for reference. I can test FF 3.5.5 running under Linux when I get home and report back.

EDIT: Yep, works in FF 3.5.5 running under Linux as well. :)

Working fine for me! As far as unread mail goes, anyway. I haven't had the opportunity to see if chat works.

Working again on FF 3.5.5, XP SP3. Pete, thanks for the super-useful script and the quick response!

Ok - it's working now. Not sure what happened but it's good. Although the labels a a lot smaller and harder to read than they were before.

Just installed the latest script version (3.0.9) and it's not working for me with FF 3.5.5. under Win 7 Beta. Neither my gmail nor google apps windows have the count label on the favicon, and the apps icon is not blue.

I was using this script as part of Better Gmail 2, which is still installed with the "show favicon" option under it unchecked.

Thoughts?

Ahh, thanks for trying again. There was a version that went up that should not have and I didn't catch my mistake in time.

I've reloaded Gmail several times with the updated script on Firefox 3.5.5 on XP and it still won't work :(

Edit @ 3:04PM: I was using the version that was around 45 minutes older than the latest version. The latest version seems to have fixed it.. well done!

Just checked and it works now for me. Had to "reload tab" a couple times, but it looks fine. (XP/FF 3.5.5)

There is now a new version with a workaround, would you mind testing this and letting me know if it works for you as well? (Currently, I've just tested it on XP/Firefox3.5.5).

An API Gmail exposes has broken. I'm looking for a workaround now, and will post when it's live.

I'm on Win 7 and FF 3.5.5 and the script doesn't seem to be working. I'm using it via Better Gmail 2 which has a problem report here: http://groups.google.com/group/better-gmail-2-f...

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

That's cool! I'm still open to testing anything want you throw at me.

Thanks!

Nope, not as of yet. It's requiring a fair amount of work, which I've yet to be able to commit at this point. It's still on the Todo list, though.

Hi Peter,

I was wondering if you'd made any progress on this?

Thanks!
