Facebook Chat Killer

Gets rid of the annoying new facebook chat feature.

I love this script - and I also love facebook chat... just not at the bottom of my window. Adam - you might be interested in the trick I use. Just make a bookmark to http://www.facebook.com/presence/popout.php and check the box "Load this bookmark in the sidebar". You can then use the chat window in your sidebar, and along with the script, clean up your facebook window. (I use Ubuntu and the chat bar at the bottom constantly flickers when it updates - very annoying.)

Well then this script obviously isn't for you LilJonny. But there are a lot of people who do find the chat bar annoying and would like to block it. That's why this script has been installed 400+ times already.

"annoying"? Umm no, I would say it is a useful and an innovative feature.

I updated the script since Facebook changed their code today.

Hey Adam, I like your idea but that sounds like a LOT of work. I really just make these scripts for myself and then upload them as kind of an afterthought.
Since I don't intend to use the chat feature at all I don't really have any incentive to spend all that time making it work like you said. But I'm sure someone else on here could. Sorry about that man.

i'm being kind of lazy, and i'm sorry, but can you make a script that changes the location of the chat bar? Maybe put it on the side and make it vertical instead of horizontal?

I guess i don't know if that's possible without remapping the whole thing by hand, but i'm dealing with final exams right now so i don't have the time to figure it out :-/
