Nov 17, 2004 1:05am Jesse Andrews Admin	The following is an archive of comments made before threaded discussions was implemented (November 16th, 2008)

Nov 16, 2008 5:31am gaikokujin k... User	Doh! Sorry dude, i was thinking one thing but typing another. About the script, i installed the new one 0.4.3 and still nada though perhaps because i am not modifying the script correctly? I only use the images.google.com which is already included, while i use the images.google.com i am not in the US would that make a difference? (In the address bar it indicates i am at images.google.com, i don't seem to have been redirected). At the moment it gives me two links, one dead link and one to the google framed view. If i am already using images.google.com is there any other modifications i should be making? Cheers -Gaiko

Nov 15, 2008 9:01pm thorbenhauer Script's Author	I'm not Jesse, but never mind g First try the new version, because it fixes a small bug. For Opera you have to add your localized Google domain in the source code. There are already two: // @include http://images.google.com/images?* // @include http://images.google.de/images?* So this script works for google.com and google.de. If you want to add support for p.e. co.uk, just add the line // @include http://images.google.co.uk/images?* Then you should place the downloaded user.js file in your Opera userscripts folder. Just ask if there a further questions.

Nov 15, 2008 8:18pm gaikokujin k... User	Hi Jesse, I am trying to get the script to work with Opera and google images. I noticed your comment about the placeholder and opera and in the script you mentioned opera doesn't understand tld but (forgive me) I didn't quite catch how the script needs to be modified to properly work with google images. At the moment the created direct link in google images is pretty much a dead link. Any clafification (for a noob) would really be appreciated. Cheers -Gaiko

Nov 6, 2008 7:26am thorbenhauer Script's Author	Try with 0.4.2. The fix also handles the flickr bug. Thanks again :-)

Nov 6, 2008 4:10am ekbworldwide Scriptwright	Thanks for the bug fixes - I found another bug. "Ari Emanuel" site:muckety.com - Google Image Search http://images.google.com/images?um=1&hl=en&lr=&... If you click on a chart - the link breaks. example your script's image link http://www.muckety.com/maps/4848/Ari-Emanuel.pn... the real image link http://www.muckety.com/maps/4848/Ari-Emanuel.pn... page link Ari Emanuel relationship map - Muckety.com http://www.muckety.com/Ari-Emanuel/4848.muckety --- edit I just noticed - that on the page - it's not a static image. So there may be no bug involved...

Nov 3, 2008 11:51pm thorbenhauer Script's Author	1. Google implements this feature, not me. ;-) The new version sets the domain according to the linked page, not the linked image. Hope this fixes this issue. 2. + 3. Fixed. Thanks for reporting!

Nov 3, 2008 6:22am ekbworldwide Scriptwright	Note - I have version 0.4 ________________ 1 >> Therefore it's not really a bug, it's a feature g Okay. But why are you implementing the "feature"? rsmccain.blogspot.com is rsmccain.blogspot.com You could check that the link title matches the link href. I had "not a bug - feature" experience today trying - and failing - to get Firefox to sort live bookmarks together with bookmarks - instead of sorting them separately. Finally - I had to install an experimental add-on just to sort them the way I want. Why it can't be set in about:config is beyond me. ________________ 2 There's a flickr bug. flickr images ending with "?v=0" can't be opened in a new tab. The "image is unavailable" placeholder is what's shown instead. example site:flickr.com "Me and Morgan Nagler" - Google Image Search http://images.google.com/images?imgsz=small%7Cm... Me and Morgan Nagler on Flickr - Photo Sharing! http://flickr.com/photos/merfiebrown_rn/292684880/ ________________ 3 There's a blogspot bug. blogger.com images open in a new tab... site:blogger.com film-noir - Google Image Search http://images.google.com/images?imgsz=small%7Cm... -but- blogspot.com images cause the dreaded dialog box problem site:blogspot.com film-noir - Google Image Search http://images.google.com/images?imgsz=small%7Cm...

Oct 27, 2008 11:30am thorbenhauer Script's Author	The title is "www.sideboob.org" but the href is: http://rsmccain.blogspot.com/2008/08/sarah-pali... The URL for the picture can be found in the src code of the rsmccain blog. I'm all about getting the random Google-search traffic (<em>e.g.,</em> <a href="http://www.sideboob.org/pictures/anne_hathaway_01.jpg">Anne Hathaway</a>).<br /> Same for the second example: <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t72/petetarr/HotGirls1.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://img382.imageshack.us/img382/6339/hotgirls1xn1.jpg" alt="Hot Girls Bikini" border="0" /></a> Seems that Google doesn't limit their image crawler to img tags. Obviously the crawler looks for href-linked images too. Therefore it's not really a bug, it's a feature g

Oct 25, 2008 10:58pm ekbworldwide Scriptwright	>> @ekbworldwide >> Could you explain the problem more precisely? I can't see a glitch with your links. Hmm... the blog seems to have been deleted. I'll post a new link if I experience the problem again.

Oct 25, 2008 10:56pm ekbworldwide Scriptwright	I found a bug - I reinstalled just to be sure I had the newest version - the bug remains. Sometimes (rarely?) the link under the image has a title that doesn't match the href. I'm not posting bikini images to be cute. I never noticed the bug before and this is where I found it: palin bikini - Google Image Search http://images.google.com/images?num=100&hl=en&l... examples The title is "www.sideboob.org" but the href is: http://rsmccain.blogspot.com/2008/08/sarah-pali... The title is "i157.photobucket.com" but the href is http://thongbikini.blogspot.com/

Oct 20, 2008 8:53am thorbenhauer Script's Author	@ekbworldwide Could you explain the problem more precisely? I can't see a glitch with your links.

Oct 17, 2008 10:50pm ekbworldwide Scriptwright	If you make the image full-sized 1 The frame is extremely difficult to move. 2 The top of the image is chopped off. The full-sized image is fine in a new tab. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://i... The google image search - it's the first image on the left. http://images.google.com/images?num=100&hl=en&l...

Oct 10, 2008 1:59pm thorbenhauer Script's Author	I've implemented a workaround for blogger images based on your proposal. Nice idea indeed!

Sep 30, 2008 9:11am ekbworldwide Scriptwright	About blogger images This code I wrote is laughable... http://pastebin.mozilla.org/544990 ... but it does work to stop the dialog box problem. Couldn't you write a blogger hack for Google Image Relinker Mod? Example - couldn't you force blogger images to appear on a page in an image tag? Surely that's better than that darn pop up. ======= About BBCode [edit - It's not working- I think it's an add-on conflict - never mind...]

Sep 29, 2008 5:44pm thorbenhauer Script's Author	1: See my comment http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/29891#comme... 3+edit: http://wiki.greasespot.net/DOMContentLoaded Correct, because images don't fire the DOMContentLoaded event. It would be possible to offer such links with this script over Google image search, but I recommend using the BBCode Firefox extension instead https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/128

Sep 28, 2008 11:31am ekbworldwide Scriptwright	_________________________ 1 Blogspot/blogger isn't working - I just installed this script and "Blogspot Image Relinker". _________________________ 2 Thanks for the RefControl link - I tried another add-on to do the same thing and it was total junk. I should have checked this thread! RefControl is really nice. _________________________ 3 How about adding an option (via "User script commands"?) to put a ready to grab forum link under the image? Example [img]http://www.groovygrooves.com/wp-content/themes/WP_Premium/images/rss.gif[img] === Edit I just realized that #3 probably isn't possible since - as far as I know - greasemonkey can't/won't work on urls that are image urls.

Jul 10, 2008 3:24pm thorbenhauer Script's Author	Concerning blogspot.com: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/29891 Hope it improves the situation. Concerning images.google.tld/images (search view): The script source contains a switch to exclude images from blogger.com from link rewriting. Just uncomment the if-clause marked in the code. It's disabled by default to allow the use of proxy workarounds. EDIT: Deprecated! See http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/5059#commen... Concerning images.google.tld/imgres (framed result view): I've discarded the idea of manipulating the top frame. Mainly because it's possible, that the picture can't be found anymore on the bottom frame. So it's not a reliable source to fetch the right folder path. In cases where it can be found, the Blogspot Image Relinker script is also involved and the link will be rewritten in the bottom frame.

Jul 10, 2008 8:57am thorbenhauer Script's Author	gutenberg.org relies on the referrer. Disabling the referrer in your browser will proof this. I'm using RefControl for such purposes. Either you can block all referrers or just block it for gutenberg.org. If you don't want to use this extension you can fix this with Privoxy too. See http://www.privoxy.org/user-manual/actions-file... Btw. I've implemented a test script for blogspot/blogger to relink the images. Seems to work. I'll throw it on the server over the day.

Jul 10, 2008 8:38am ekbworldwide Scriptwright	I was going to forget about Privoxy but then I decided I had to learn more about it. gutenberg.org often won't allow a direct link from google images. a gutenberg.org image via http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=... The direct link... http://www.gutenberg.org/files/18757/18757-h/im... .. if you click it - you'll (probably?) get this One final question about Privoxy - can Privoxy stop that from happening? And make the direct link clickable? site:gutenberg.org - Google Image Search http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=site%3A...

Jul 9, 2008 12:12pm thorbenhauer Script's Author	The filter works for me. After adding it to the user.action file, restarting Privoxy (not really necessary, but to be sure) and flushing the browser cache no download dialog appeared. I've tested many pictures, even from blogs, not only over the Google image search. This also doesn't interfere with my script. Of course if it's disabled you get the regular Google image search pages. But clicking on the top thumbnails in the framed result view, there is no download dialog. Are you sure Privoxy is installed and configured correctly? What happens if you go to http://config.privoxy.org/show-status with Privoxy enabled? For questions about Privoxy use the mailing list https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ij... I think there is no official support forum. About your script ideas: It's worth a try. I'm not sure about the part in the framed result view, but for the blogs it should be possible. I'll give you an update soon.

Jul 9, 2008 4:12am ekbworldwide Scriptwright	How about having your script to stop a dialog box from opening for blogger images? google image stuff If an image has a link location of... http://bp + number .blogger.com/ + blahblah + .jpg http://bp + number .blogger.com/ + blahblah + .gif etc ... do not rewrite the link and open the blogger image in a frame. At the top of the frame rewrite the link location of the thumbnail. The link location and the image location have the same beginning and the same ending. The script could search the blogger page, grab the image link, add a "-h" and fix the link location. If you click the thumbnail - you get the image's page. This solution isn't perfect but it's workable - isn't it? =================================== I'll be working on this second idea - I have a feeling you could write a script to do it about 100X faster. blogger page stuff On blogger pages - (all?) the location links for clickable images could be rewritten. A location link could become the image link with "-h" added. I may be wrong - but image links seem to be kosher and easily changed to point to the image's page simply by adding "-h".

Jul 9, 2008 2:50am ekbworldwide Scriptwright	Thank you. >> Fixing half of the links doesn't really improve the situation, >> or do you think otherwise? Fixing half is a bad idea. >> A better way >> A filter would look like this: `{ -filter +hide-content-disposition{block} } .blogger.com` I added that filter to the default.filter file - I just copied and pasted it into my filters. I know you wrote "would look like" but I don't know how long it will take me to figure out the Privoxy code to use. I learn coding things very slowly. 1 If I disable your script - the Privoxy filter "half" works at google images. It opens a page in a google image frame. But clicking on the top thumbnail or the image on the page - opens a dialog box. 2 If I use your script - the Privoxy filter doesn't work - and a dialog box is opened. 3 The filter doesn't work at blogger (see #1) if you click on an image. example Juan de la Cuerva: RUMBO A MARTE http://juandelacuerva.blogspot.com/2007/11/rumb... Clicking on the Mars photo - forces open a dialog box. === I spent about 10 minutes googling in vain for a Privoxy forum. Without a forum to ask questions - I don't think I can figure it out. Privoxy doesn't have a forum?

Jul 8, 2008 12:51pm thorbenhauer Script's Author	It's a pita but there is no easy workaround on the greasemonkey side. If you'll look up your google image search you'll find both types: images locations (containing /sxxx/) and link locations (containing /sxxx-R/) as you called them below. In case of a image location you can add -h to the url. In the other case it's not that trivial: see http://knownissues.blogspot.com/2007/11/clickin... Without a XMLHTTPRequest it's not possible to get the right image location folder. And doing this for every picture will bloat network traffic and processing time. Fixing half of the links doesn't really improve the situation, or do you think otherwise? A better way of fixing this issue would be the use of a local proxy like Privoxy. You could filter the content-disposition HTTP response header and force your browser to render the image. See http://www.privoxy.org/user-manual/actions-file... A filter would look like this: `{ -filter +hide-content-disposition{block} } .blogger.com`

Jul 7, 2008 11:13pm ekbworldwide Scriptwright	I just installed your script - blogger images force open a dialog box. example Juan de la Cuerva: RUMBO A MARTE http://juandelacuerva.blogspot.com/2007/11/rumb...
