i'd use with clauses, so that the last couple of blocks look like:

with(unsafeWindow)
{
	with(kPartner)
	{
		noAds = true;
		extAds = false
		isHeadAdServed = false;  
		bucket = 0;
	}
	gLaunchProfile.stop("--ads");
}

amazing, works perfectly in Beta. You might want to make your descriptions more clear stating that it does allow you to see the search filters in the right-hand side bar which is the feature I was mainly looking for. Thank you this is amazing!

I just had the thought to start working on building something to do this. Luckily, I did a quick search and found your script. Works great and saved me the time/effort!

Thanks a lot :)

I need to call the function that gives more space to the window while in the inbox and I think that's it.

But now I'm at work.

Kaley: I think you are right it sucked, but you must admit it's pretty cool now.
Mug Nebot: I've added your lines, thanks!

Just ad the following to the above script to remove the text link ads from classic Yahoo mail.

GM_addStyle("div#nwad { display:none;}");
GM_addStyle("div#swads { display:none;}");

It deletes the banner at the top of the window, and gets rid of all the little pictures on the sidebar, but doesnt get rid of the links.

Also, it deletes the fancy text buttons when you compose mail (spell check buttons, bold, underline etc.) Not to mention it doesnt work on all the ads with that domain.

Good idea, but not very thorough.

I think it should be:
http://*.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch*
not:
http://*.mail.yahoo.com/dc/*

 
Doug User

It appears that this does not work with the new Beta/ajaxy yahoo mail interface.

 
brackenb5 User

Works great!!! FYI: you may need to add a different URL to the included pages.

 
Soheyl Scriptwright

Yeah; it's very cool...
thanks.
