This is a Greasemonkey script for use with ThePirateBay.
Now you can search in a specific category and not just in the
main categories the people at ThePirateBay thinks you want to
search in.
For example, you can search for "1985" in "Video/Music videos" only,
and not having to manually filter away all those useless entries in
other categories you're not interested in.
This script also traverses down into the following pages to fill up
your search result list with enough entries. Due to this function,
it can take a few seconds longer to complete the search. A small
page-traverse counter is shown in the upper left side of the page.
Apart from the search extending features, this one also adds two more
things. It adds a checkbox for showing only seeded torrents, and thereby
replacing the "tpbhideseedless.user.js" script, which most likely will not
work very well with this one.
The second extra feature is that it will strip away most of the ads.
This is all done using global css (in the PageCleanup function).
*Fixes in v0.5 (which is the first actually numbered version):*
* Some fixes has been done to the page numbering. The "next"-arrow now points to the first page not yet having been scanned. Yes, it updates live, so even if you stop, it will be set correctly.
* Default maxResult value has been lowered to 20. This does not mean that the maximum limit of results is 20, but rather that after 20 has been reached, no more pages will be scanned after the current one.
*Fixes in v0.6:*
* Extended search options now also available on the front page.
* Some cosmetic fixes.
This has been tested only with the 0.5 beta version of Greasemonkey.
Several known bugs exists:
* The page numbering is flawed, due to the traversal method, and apart from rewriting the links to include the new search category and noseed options, page numbers are left as they were in the original search (apart from the "next"-arrow fixup in v0.5).
* The script isn't checking completely if it's on a proper page for for applying itself, so weird things _may_ happen.
* The options only seem to appear on the search result page, and not on the main search (the one with the big logo) page.
* Some javascript error appears in the javascript console, and I don't know why at this point.
* Probably a bunch more I'm not aware of.
