Gmail Signature Float

Moves your signature in Gmail to the top of the message rather than the bottom

New Gmail Breaks This Script - I appreciate all the emails that I've had lately about Gmail breaking this script and I am working on a solution. However, I'm pretty busy at work and with my master's degree right now and so have not had a whole lot of time to devout to it. Check back here often or email me to be notified when the fix is released.

This script came into existence because I got sick and tired of copy and pasting my signature from below quoted messages to above quoted messages. The additional functionality has come from various user requests -- which I encourage. Send requests to tim |AT| tim-jarrett DOT com.

Additional features include: allowing HTML to be embedded in the signature, option to "float" the signature or not, option to include signature in replies/forwards or not, option to remove "Sig Dashes", which is discouraged.

Last Updated: 08-21-2007
Current Version: 0.9 BETA

CHANGELOG:
Version 0.9
Added conditional option to exclude signature from replies/forwards.

Version 0.8.2:
Fixed script so that pressing the "Compose" button from the contact list pages appropriately allows HTML and clears dashes (thanks for the bug report Raymon)

Coming Soon
Check back soon! Due to LOTS of feature requests lately, I will have longer signatures available no later than 8/23/2007.

PLEASE NOTE:

This script runs only when gmail loads it's javascript file. So after upgrading, please remember to log out and then back in to gmail or click View -> Reload. Simply clicking the refresh button isn't enough.
This script is being packaged in Lifehacker's "Better Gmail", I can't voucher for how well Gmail Signature Float plays with other Gmail scripts and so can't support installations based on "Better Gmail" (though I am flattered, I freakin' love Lifehacker)

Apr 28, 2008 Martin Stock... User	Please, please update this script to work with Gmail 2 and allow it to be used by http://lifehacker.com/software/gmail

Mar 27, 2008 ponderosatree User	Yes, for the love of god please update this for Gmail 2.0

Mar 26, 2008 gianluca User	please make it for gmail 2 please please please please please :) Gianluca

Jan 28, 2008 Rafael Ruppel Scriptwright	I made a workaround to make it compatible with new GraaseMonkey: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/21748 But I had to fix the allowHtml and removeDashes options. So I choosed to mark allowHtml always true and removeDashes always false. I will make the code better soon. And I will also make it fully functional.

Jan 24, 2008 Cody Walker User	Use this instead... it's not "AS NICE" as this script was, but it works great... just saw it on lifehacker.com today... http://lifehacker.com/348498/add-multiple-addre...

Jan 23, 2008 tango_ninja User	new GreaseMonkey update breaks this script. revert to v0.7.20070607.0 here (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addons...) for it to work.

Jan 22, 2008 techpro User	Aargh! The Greasemonkey update of 21 Jan breaks this script, even with UK settings.

Jan 22, 2008 AquaBooks User	Awesome script. I switched to UK settings to avoid Gmail 2. Be aware that the new version of Greasemonkey may disable this script. I had to revert to previous version of Greasemonkey.

Dec 16, 2007 Cody Walker User	I check this page every day. Still no update. My signature looks so stupid with those HTML tags that I refuse to delete.

Dec 6, 2007 jabernal User	There is one script for Gmail 2 in http://cybernetnews.com/2007/11/09/html-signatu... Best regards

Nov 30, 2007 tango_ninja User	this is a GREAT script. my only complaint is that "remove signature on replies & fwds" results in the quoted message being removed as well. -TN

Nov 28, 2007 Voyagerfan5761 Scriptwright	@jetpeach: How about getting them to add all the features? HTML, move-to-top, and (my God, it's been so long I've forgotten!) removing the dashes. Not allowing HTML sigs is pretty crippling, IMHO. Other than that, I love Gmail.

Nov 27, 2007 jetpeach User	yep, definitely desperate for a new version, although it'd be even better if google would just add the simply option of "place reply above text"... sooo stupid that they haven't yet! others who feel the same way, post something in this thread, maybe they'll eventually get the point and add a programmer to this problem. http://groups.google.com/group/To-GRF/browse_th...

Nov 25, 2007 JLPizarro User	Pleas, We need the new version of this script !!!! Thanks for your work.

Nov 23, 2007 Cody Walker User	pa-pa-please!!!! new gmail. I can't go on living without this script! lol, thanks for your hard work, I'm just spoiled now that I've had this for so long.

Nov 21, 2007 iktorn User	New gmail... please :-)

Nov 19, 2007 Alan Smith User	This is great, my only comment is that it doesn't work with foxytunes "Now Playing" signature. Do you hapeen to know a way to get it to work?

Nov 16, 2007 harry smiths... User	dude... please fix this for the new gmail... i need it

Nov 9, 2007 Voyagerfan5761 Scriptwright	Sorry, I lied. I'm using the new interface for its speed and new keyboard shortcuts. I'm still hanging on the edge of my chair waiting for an upgrade, though. Make sure to drop a line by Lifehacker when you're done; I think Gina's anxious to put your script back into Better Gmail 2. :)

Nov 8, 2007 Voyagerfan5761 Scriptwright	You know, I'm going to be using the old version of Gmail until this script is updated. It's absolutely critical to the way I function when it comes to email. I don't know if it's relevant to what you've done to make this script work, but there's an unofficial Greasemonkey API with documentation at http://code.google.com/p/gmail-greasemonkey/wik... . It was written by Mihai Parparita of Gmail Macros etc. fame. Hope that'll give you some ideas! Thanks for a really great script!

Nov 7, 2007 JBS User	You would think the "geniuses" at Google would've added the signature float functionality (along with multiple signatures, etc.) to the new version of Gmail. Let's come up with a fix fast. Cutting-and-pasting stinks.

Nov 7, 2007 techpro User	It has stopped working for me, today. I really hope it gets fixed soon.

Nov 7, 2007 dy User	Yeh, its broken :(

Oct 30, 2007 Jordan K User	It seems to be broken with the new version of Gmail.

Oct 17, 2007 odyss User	very nice script. I would propose also, to add an option for different signatures depending on the account used to send the mail (you can have many accounts in gmail)
