FixGmailBar

Last update on Oct 29, 2007

Fixes the toolbar at the top of the gmail screen so that it is always displayed, regardless of scroll position

This will do a little DOM work and set the top bar for all iframes in gmail to have the value "fixed" for the attribute "position". This is a convenient mechanism to keep the links at the top of the screen at all times, which comes in handy when you want to create a new filter, or logout, and don't want to have to scroll up to the top of the screen.

Sorry, didn't notice the last few days...Gmail has made some big top-level re-organizations in their DOM: mostly, it seems, the intention is to confuse DOM-explorers, such as greasemonkey scripts. There are about 10 orders of nested, single-element DIVS holding the main page now, and they all have very obscure class names. Hopefully, I'll get a fix out today.

It doesn't seem to work anymore. Google may have changed things around...

Hmm, not getting any errors on my Firebug. If anyone else has trouble, please copy-paste the error into a message and I can work on it. The last thing a developer (or anyone) needs is a cluttered error console.

It works now with only a few errors (Firebug reports errors on many sites, so I wouldn't worry about it).

Cool, this is pretty useful.

I had to add an asterik (*) at the end of the include URL for it to work, you might want to add that.

Firebug is reporting 21 errors in the code.. but it works regardless.
