Bug ====================================

Movies with dates like (1963/I) don't display the actors age.

example

Richard Johnson (I)
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0426062/
Look at
The Haunting (1963/I) .... Dr. John Markway

No age is listed.

suggestions =================================

1
How about putting the age to the left of the list? It makes it much easier to see.

2
How about putting ages on *movie* pages? Suggestion 1 would work well here too.

example

Jaws (1975)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073195/

Knowing the ages of the actors is a big time saver if you want to figure out who is who.

How about making the ages bold.

Hi Thomas!

I found a bug:
Location: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1723094/
Error: link has no properties
Source File: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Hiromacu/Application%20Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/onuldpqt.Hiromacu/gm_scripts/imdbage.user.js
Line: 391

But this a nice script! :)

Do you have an example of the "2007/I" problem not displaying the years. For example http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0292816/, when I look at it the years are added but before the slash eg "(2001, 7 years ago/I)"

As for the multiple episodes, it's harder to fix, actually it was already down on my TODO list in the script :-)

Fixing the future ages is fairly easy, I have added it to my TODO list.

I'm a bit slammed of late so I'll probably not have much time in the near future, but I hope to get a few things picked off in March.

Thanks for the comments :-)

I like how you added the persons age to the movies they did. I found a couple of problems that you might need to add or fix:

1. If the year is something like "2007/I" there will not be an age next to that movie.
2. If there is a TV show that has multiple episodes the script only gives the age for main title. Would be nice if you can fix it so it gives the age for each episode instead of only the main title.

Another addition would be to add the future age of the person for upcoming movies or TV shoes.

Keep up the good work and hope to see more from this scrip.

this is the best imdb script ever. thanks for the update! all movie fanatics should have this script in their arsenal. thomas stewart is my freakin' greasemonkey hero! thank you, thank you, thank you!

I have updated the script, the main thing that has changed is that it now adds ages for films on actor pages. I also fixed a few plural bugs. The signs should now work on the new layout (god knows why logged in users still get the old layout). I knocked a few other bugs and did a few TODO's but ended up with a longer list of TODO's than I started with.

"I think a nice feature would be adding the age of people when they did a certain film... I think this was on the "Ideas" list."

i second this idea as well ;)

 
Gasoline- Scriptwright

can someone do an update or a re-write of this script? i love imdbage, but so far only the actors' ages and the movies' ages are showing for me. the signs parameters are activated in the script, but i still can't get them to show.

 
Thomas Stewart Script's Author

Remember if you don't like the signs, just edit "doSigns" to be false at the top of the script!

This is MUST HAVE if you really are into movies. I don't care about the signs, though. Thank you very much!

I think a nice feature would be adding the age of people when they did a certain film... I think this was on the "Ideas" list.

Very nice, professional and extremely well commented script, though. Kudos.

Useless? It's all I need on imdb. It also doesn't pretend to do much more. I like to know ages, age when they died when I look at the persons at imdb.

 
Sublime50lbc User

This is great. Less time to figure ages on my own now. :P

It is a nice, seamless script but pretty useless. All it seems to display is a persons or movies age and astrological signs.
