Netflix boximages in queue

Display DVD box images in your Netflix queue

I've always found it annoying that I couldn't see the DVD box images in my Netflix queue... The box images make it a little easier to remember what the title is about.

No problem! Also, if the link underline bothers you (since it sorta runs behind the image and peeks out on the left side), you can add this line at the end also: thisHref.style.textDecoration="none"; No big deal though, I don't think. :)

:-D Thanks Chekmate. I wanted this functionality too, but it was always 'good enough'... I love open source! Changes merged into the script.

Love the script. Edited the script locally it so that the boximage is within the hyperlink, so mouseovers show the movie summary box. Change the line directly after // finally insert image into document near the end of the script to the following two lines instead:

      var thisHref = thisRow.firstChild.firstChild;
      thisHref.insertBefore(newImg, thisHref.firstChild);
      

Enjoy!

I can't believe how much more efficient my movie searches are now. It would be great if you could implement the same functionality on www.adamandeve.com for their DVD selections.

Updated 5/17/08. Loaded my queue today and found that the script was broken! I've greatly simplified the script now. Handles the main queue as well as the new "instant" tab that I see.
