GMail link on Google.com

Make your GMail address on Google.com clickable. (works on Classic and Personal Home)

When you are logged into gmail, your email address appears on every google.com page, but it does not take you to gmail. That sucks. This fixes it.

Updated: Now works for Classic Home and Personal Home, thanks to punzak. I also cleaned it up a bit and wrapped everything in try/catches so that failures due to future DOM changes will happen gracefully without JS errors.

Updated: Works again as of 3/9/2007

to fix the userscript on the personalized home change the first line to this:

var el=(document.body.childNodes[0].firstChild && document.body.childNodes[0].firstChild.firstChild && document.body.childNodes[0].firstChild.firstChild.firstChild) ||(document.body.childNodes[1].firstChild.firstChild && document.body.childNodes[2].firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild);

This is working on the Google "Classic Home" page but not on the personalized home page. Is there a way to make it work on the personalized page?

Okay, I see that a change in www.google.com broke this. It's fixed again.

But, if you find errors in scripts, leave a comment to inform the author. Sheesh!

527 installs, and no comments! What gives?

You could comment on this script if you were logged in.
