Yes! Thanks SO much for updating it. I had moved on to a different sig and remote quote scheme but it was lacking in so many ways. I just happened to check back here today and was so pleased to see the update. Works great again, of course.

Another Google code change?, replied by N Flanders

Thanks Chuck, I appreciate the fix, and you.

Thanks! I couldn't find it by just digging through the source... but the Display Id & Class Details option under Information made things easy. I hope you figure out a way to get around google's Id randomization but at least for now I can make the changes as necessary.

Code is fixed. I am looking into another way of working the script as it appears Google is randomly changing the editable field name I use. You can update this yourself easily enough. Just look for the ID name of the editable form. It changed to LW-yrriRe in this round. Just look for that string. I use the Web Developer Toolbar to look at the ID.

Hey gang. Yeah same here. The script stopped working on all of my computers about 3 days ago. Would love a fix, or advice on how to fix myself.

Like many other posters, I really like this script- it's about the only thing I've seen that provides the functionality I'm looking for.

That being said, was there another google code change? I caught the changes made a few weeks ago, but it seems to be broken again. If so, and if the change is as simple as last time, is there a way you (Chuck) could quickly outline what you look for when you make the change? Even though you seem to respond fairly quickly with updates, I'd still be interested in being able to locally modify the script to adapt to these seemingly more frequent google code changes. Either way, I hope to see an update soon!

Thanks again for the awesome script.

Connoley, I appreciate the offer, but no need to tip. I enjoy the feedback though!

Chuck: This script has been so useful to me, and I'm amazed at how responsive you are whenever it needs to be updated. Is there a way to tip you?

Ok, I updated the script. Gmail made a small change. Please let me know if it is working for you now. Thanks!

Hey Gang. This is the best script ever! Can't recommend it enough. But it just (10/19/09) broke for me too. I think Google must have adjusted it's code. As I am a script dunce, I trust that someone will update it soon... please.

I've been lovin' this script for many, many months now and it's been working fine for me (.6beta currently), but as of this evening it seems to have died, as I have no sign of it when composing or replying. Was there a major Gmail code change today or somethin'? TIA.

I'm using 3.5.3 and I can't figure out how to make this script work. Can anyone offer a step by step set of instructions that might help?

Thanks for the script, and thanks again in advance for the support.

Hi Chuck,

script .6beta works fine with FF 3.5.1 / Linux when 'Compose Mail'-Mode is 'Rich formatting', but it doesn't work for me in 'Plain Text'-Mode.

Please check. Thx

If anyone is interested I use this now and it works good with 3.5

Hi Chuck,
firstly I'd ilke to say thanks for putting the effort in with this script as its so usefull for us here.

Ok - I just upgraded to FF 3.5 final and its just not working for me.
I tried having a look with firebug, and I ran in the console :

document.evaluate("//body[@class='editable tr-field']", document, null, XPathResult.UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE, null)

This returned zero results. I don't really understand why. This is a pain as the script was super helpfull. I've inspected the dom and the body element is there with the good class='editable tr-field'.
:-(

I am running the final of Firefox 3.5 and the script is running fine for me. Can you describe any problems you are having? Thanks.

When I updated to FF 3.5 it stopped working.

The script is now set to work with Firefox 3.1 Beta 2. It may be broke on earlier versions. Try removing one space for the 'editable tr-field' and see if that works in FF 3.0.

But I would recommend moving to Firefox 3.1 Beta 2. It is fast and most plugins are working now.
