It works better than the native filter - this script allow questions to be hidden, not just faded.

edit: Just discovered that the native version does have "hide", but this itself is well hidden on the user options page. The wildcard thing still hold, and the userscript seems faster too...

It looks like much of your script has been folded into the stackoverflow site natively. An excellent death. Long live the king! Sadly the native functionality does not have wild cards. Yet.

Jonathan, the Unanswered Questions page is totally ignored by the script. I'm pretty sure that this page is structured identically to the Questions page, just with a slightly different URL.

It would be helpful to be able to fade, or otherwise distinguish, [closed] questions too.

Interesting questions can now be highlighted.

There's no UI to pick the colour yet.

You can now use wildcard "*" characters to match zero or more characters: *c#* *.net* *vb* etc.

Hey Jonathan, have you thought about a wildcard specification for the tags? As a Java guy, I have nixed c#, .net, ado.net, vb.net, and now asp.net-mvc. But the combos just keep coming. This morning I'm noticing c#-2.0, vb6, etc. Regex would be just fine. So that in my case I could use: ".*c#.*", ".*\.net.*".

Yes it would :)

The latest version (Oct 3, 2008 15:06) now hides ignored tags in the "Recent Tags" list.

Thanks Jonathan, This is great.

Hey, would it make sense to also hide occurrences of Ignored Tags that appear in the "Recent Tags" section on the main page?
