Script Summary: Filter out unwanted objects on ImmobilienScout24.DE. Automatically highlight the ones you might be most interested in. Focus on the real ones.
Version: 1.2.5
Description
German hint: Die Benutzeroberfläche des Skriptes spricht natürlich auch Deutsch (ist schließlich für eine deutsche Site). Die Beschreibung hier ist trotzdem in Englisch, da dies die Sprache dieser Site ist...
ImmobilienScout24.DE is probably one of the largest and best known portals to search for real estates in Germany. But though it also has the most complete search conditions I found, it still lists properties I don't want to see - and gives me no possibilities to hide them.
There are two scripts around here at UserScripts.Org (IS24ResultListHelper and ImmobilienScout24Helper), they haven't been updated for quite a while and unfortunately stopped working. My knowledge was not enough to repair those, so I decided to write my own "simple script" (which turned out to grow quite fast, and teaching me a lot of new skills).
There are more of these web sites around in Germany, and so I derived two more scripts from this one: You may also want to check ImmoweltFilter for Immowelt.DE and ImmonetFilter for Immonet.DE. The handling of these two scripts is almost the same as described below, since they share much of their code.
