/** This script simply adds a link to IMDb from a standard Movie Page in Netflix.
** This can be useful if you switch back and forth half as much as I do.
** The link should show up next to the "More Movie Details" link, which is to the right
** of the summary blurb.
**
** This script is losely based on, and is in complement to, "Netflix Links in IMDb"
