hey glenn i know my question has nothing to do with this script but i couldnt find your email anywhere

so i was wondering if you could create this script except for baseball it is a bench all players without a game script

http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/6716

that is the script link

and here is the actual script

// ==UserScript==
// @name Yahoo Fantasy NBA Bench All
// @namespace http://mattandchristy.net/benchall
// @description Provides a button to bench all players without a game
// @include http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/*...=*
// @include http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/*...
// ==/UserScript==
//
// Change log:
// 2006-12-10 Initial version of script; used Yahoo Fantasy NBA Game Log Link
// as a base to start developing

var doBench = function(event) {

var allElements;
var thisElement;
var playerLink = "http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/"
var gameLogLink;


allElements = document.evaluate(
"//*[contains(@class, 'player')]/..",
document,
null,
XPathResult.UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE,
null);

// burn the first two rows; they are headers, not players
for (var i = 2; i < allElements.snapshotLength; i++) {

thisElement = allElements.snapshotItem(i);

tds = thisElement.getElementsByTagName('td');
nameNode = tds[1];
if(nameNode) {
// td div a textnode value
name = nameNode.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;

// get the opponent TD's innerHTML; text node won't work because
// the ? for 'no opponent' gets translated to a character =/
opp = tds[3].innerHTML;

if(opp == '?') {

newPosSelectNode = tds[2].firstChild;
// select the 'BN' node for these guys (last option)
newPosSelectNode.selectedIndex = newPosSelectNode.length-1;

GM_log("Benching " + name);
}
}
}

// stop event propagation, if this was a click
if(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
}
}

/* gameLogLink = document.createElement('a'); */
/* gameLogLink.setAttribute("href",thisElement.href + "/gamelog") */
/* //gameLogLink.setAttribute("class","cellindent") */
/* gameLogLink.setAttribute("target","_blank") */
/* gameLogLink.setAttribute("title","game log link") */
/* gameLogLink.innerHTML = "" */
/* thisElement.parentNode.insertBefore(gameLogLink, thisElement.nextSibling.nextSibling); */

var BENCHBUTTON_ID = "bencherButton";
var BENCHBUTTON_TEXT = "[Bench players with no game]";

// create the bench button
var bencher = document.createElement("A");
bencher.addEventListener("click", doBench, true);
bencher.href = "#";
bencher.innerHTML = BENCHBUTTON_TEXT;
bencher.className = 'button';
/* bencher.style.backgroundColor = "#D8D9D5"; */
/* bencher.style.borderTopColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderBottomColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderLeftColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderRightColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderTopStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderBottomStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderLeftStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderRightStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderTopWidth = "1px"; */
/* bencher.style.borderBottomWidth = "1px"; */
/* bencher.style.borderLeftWidth = "1px"; */
/* bencher.style.borderRightWidth = "1px"; */
bencher.style.paddingTop = "2px";
bencher.style.paddingBottom = "5px";
bencher.style.paddingLeft = "5px";
bencher.style.paddingRight = "5px";
bencher.style.color = "#FFFFFF";
bencher.id = BENCHBUTTON_ID;

// attach the bench button right before the "submit changes" button
// at the bottom of the screen
var buttonBar = document.getElementById('buttonbar');
var inputs = buttonBar.getElementsByTagName('input');
var submitButton = inputs[inputs.length-1]
buttonBar.insertBefore(bencher, submitButton);

i tried to mess around with it a little bit but got no luck

please respond soon

i will post this on a couple other pages to ensure that you get the message

Aaron S

thanks for the update :)

Doesn't work on Firefox 3, as well as Gamelog Tip.

So I wonder if an upgrade is coming soon.

Yahoo has opened up Fantasy Football for the 2008 season. They have changed the interface some, and certain scripts cause the new interface to behave incorrectly. For example, if you hover over the "My Team" link, a sub-menu will open up, allowing you to directly go to a particular page instead of having to click on "My Team" then clicking on the link for the page you want. However, with some scripts enabled for football, the sub-menu disappears, making it so you cannot click on an entry in the sub-menu. This script is one of those scripts. I have found the following scripts also break the new interface:
Yahoo Fantasy Game Log Tooltip
Yahoo Fantasy Smack Tooltip

This script (and a couple of your others) no longer work on Firefox 3 (Beta 5).

Possible to update them? Thanks for your awesome work!

I love this so much for baseball, thanks for making it work. I've been sucked into a hockey league and would love to be able to use it there too. I wonder why it's not as simple as adding the Yahoo hockey link, but that's obviously not enough.

Anyway, if there's a way to do this, I'd love to.

Thanks again!

Glenn, nice to see it works with football too. I have a suggestion though. It's annoying that the notes don't appear on the 'Tools' page in either baseball or football. Any way the notes image could be added so we could see why players were being added/dropped? I know this is beyond the scope of your script, but it would be a great addition.

Hey, awesome. Much thanks. :)

This script is the single most useful greasemonkey script I have ever used. I feel completely, utterly naked without this feature in yahoo's fantasy football, I don't know how I ever survived without for baseball. I don't suppose anyone wants to do some hard work and make this work there? :)

Yeah, I suppose I don't really need the feature. I just thought that it was very handy for Yahoo and that it would be cool to have on ESPN as well.

Something that ESPN is really lacking is a FA watch list. That is a feature that I have been desperately wanting ever since I started using ESPN.
But that would probably take a lot of work.

Here's a link to my team page: http://games.espn.go.com/flb/clubhouse?leagueId...

And here's a link to the league homepage:
http://games.espn.go.com/flb/leagueoffice?leagu...

Is there an easy way to make this work with ESPN as well?

Glen Carr, your Fantasy Baseball scripts are a work of art. This one is no exception - I love it. Keep up the good work.
