Script Summary: Display "hidden text" or "HTML Comments". Great for help on puzzle caches.



Version: 1.3

Thumb Thumb Thumb

Overview


Shows a button to click if there is any "white" text on the page or if user has entered in comments in the HTML. Useful for puzzle caches for a quick check for hints or puzzles. I found my self constantly looking for hidden text on puzzle caches for more help and so I decided to create a script for a quick check rather than doing the search my self each time.

If you come across a Geocache that uses hidden text and my script doesn't pick it up please send me the GC # and I'll try to add it.

I made a small edit part on the top of the code for user settings. You can adjust to what color scheme you prefer (if you don't like my red/white and green/white settings).
