Recent Changes
2.03 (June 18, 2008) - Fixed a bug where today's birthdays wouldn't be highlighted or marked as "Today." This should be the last bug associated with MySpace updating the user homepage.
2.02 (June 18, 2008) - Fixed a bug that prevented birthdays on the new-style homepage from being sorted. This is a separate issue from the one addressed in version 2.01.
2.01 (June 18, 2008) - Fixed a bug that was preventing the birthdays from appearing.
2.0 (May 25, 2008) - Options are now set through User Script Commands (see above for details). Added a new option to show/hide the Upcoming Birthdays box if there are no birthdays. Plus many improvements to the classic homepage version that are already in the new homepage version:
- Changed date format ("May 24" instead of "5/24/2008", and "Today" for today's birthdays)
- Added message and comment links for each friend
- Removed "View All Upcoming Birthdays link" unless more friends are not shown
- Fixed bug where past birthdays wouldn't go away
- Should load faster, especially with many birthdays
1.92 (May 17, 2008) - The highlight color of today's birthdays now matches the page theme (new home page only).
1.91 (April 22, 2008) - Fixed a bug involving friends whose names contain quotation marks (new home page only).
1.9 (March 12, 2008) - For a few days, MySpace showed birth years with people's upcoming birthdates. Now they don't, so the previous version of the script (1.81) is broken. 1.9 has the fix. Unfortunately, this means that friends' ages are no longer shown.
