Just released a new version (2.1.2) that fixes the "NaN" problem in the number of reviews. Download and enjoy!

Same problem is occurring with me. Also sometimes the rotten info shown on imdb for certain movies are not correct. But this happens rarely.

Hope you resolve the NaN issue as soon as possible. This is great script.

Hi,

Great script, but now it seems like the number of reviews is broken. Suddenly (like a month ago) I started getting just "NaN" instead of the number of reviews. Dunno if this is due to a change on IMDb or RT though.

Hope you can have a look at this. Thanks! :]

Linked the 2009 movie Bounty to 1935's Mutiny on the Bounty.

Script now "unbroke" for me, replied by Kerry1960

With the latest changes the script was broken until this latest update. Thanks!

I wish I could be more descriptive about what was broken, but all I can say is the July 14, 2009 update got it working for me again.

Example

Islander (2006)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0819723/

Islander - 88% at rottentomatoes.com
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/10007718-islander/

How about if the script showed something like this:

88% Fresh (Average Rating: 7/10) Reviews: 8 = 7 + 1 More

Islander seems promising, but it only has 8 reviews.

Personally - I don't pay attention to RT unless there are at least 10 reviews - if not 15.

Tekjock,

I don't see any errors on my install, so I don't think it's an issue with IMDB or Oracle of Bacon changing something.

What exactly is happening in your page? Nothing? Do the red "Checking" messages show up, but not the actual center numbers?

I love this script, the main reason is, my wife is obsessed with the 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon.

I have a suggestion request:
Could you provide the average rating from RT next to the tomatometer rating? eg: 7.9/10

If you don't want it there by default, perhaps having it as an option?

Cheers.

that's a pity, but I figured it'd be the case. Thanks for the response.

Nascent,

The only thing this script has to do with the "User Rating" or "MOVIEmeter" is that it adds another line before them. That might be screwing up some custom CSS in the other script, but there's nothing I can do about it here.

I found another bug. It's when using the IMDB dark blue redesign script in conjunction with his one so is probably a font size issue or something, if there's nothing you can do on your end let me know and I'll report the bug on his script too.

The words User Rating overlap the MOVIEmeter.

Just released 1.2.1 that adds the suggested escape function -- and it works for Stellan Skarsgård -- who, I was surprised to find out, has a better Center number than Kevin Bacon.

Just found another problem. Haven't checked if it's just the new version or if it was there before. The script fails to aquire the bacon number for people with extended ascii characters in their name, like swedish actor 'Stellan Skarsgård' (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001745/).

I think adding an escape-function would fix it.

var personName = escape(document.title.replace(" - IMDB",""));

Just released v 1.2 that fixes the error -- turns out it wasn't on IMDB's side but the Oracle of Bacon who changed their code.

Thanks Robin for pointing out the change on IMDB's side that broke the script. I had noticed a couple of actors with no Bacon Number, but didn't realize that it was completely kaput.

I'll try to update the script with your fix sometime this week.

First of all, great script!

But there seems like there has been a change to the imdb site since the script was introduced.
The findName() function returned for example "Freeman,%20Morgan%20(I)" but needed to return "Morgan%20Freeman%20(I)" in order for the script to work.

I made a quick fix by replacing

return personName;

with

var sep = personName.indexOf(',');
var num = personName.lastIndexOf('(');
if(num != -1) {
return (personName.substring(sep+4,num-3) + '%20' + personName.substring(0,sep)+ '%20' + personName.substring(num));
} else {
return (personName.substring(sep+4) + '%20' + personName.substring(0,sep));
}

Maybe not the prettiest fix, but it works...
