The code on many of google's pages has different markup. I haven't had time to go back and write code for cases other than the home page. I'll try and do that sometime though when I get the chance.

This script does not work with www.google.co.in kindly help.

This is great, Jeremy -- I've wanted to modify the menu in gmail for so long! How google overlooked something like this is beyond me...

The script works great on the google.com page, but when I apply it to gmail, it arranges the modified menu vertically, not horizontally, down the left hand side. What am I doing wrong? Gmail is the place where I really want to use this...

I don't know why it broke in the first place, but it was a pretty easy fix. Script works again.

Personalized Home Page (iGoogle) doesn't work. The HTML is different than their other pages (it hasn't been updated yet). I imagine it will be updated soon. If not, I'll write a fix for it.

More links.

Jeremy, the script is not replacing the Google Navigation bar. I looked through your script, and it's referring to an ElementID "gbi" within the body. I can't see one in the default Google Navigation Bar.

I also sent you an email a few days ago with more links you can add, along with code to open the target links in a new window.

Updated script. Works again :)

this site needs private messaging. here's my email: mancubus220 AT gmail DOT com

Jeremy, how about including your email address in the script, or else post it here and gum it up to avoid spammers? I could send the links to you.

 
CyberCPA Scriptwright

I am sending this to the author somehow. I tried pre and code tags to no avail. I am SO frustrated by this.

Here is the code to add some more Google links. The "Google" link is for the Classic Homepage (the one with just the searchbox).
var Bookmarks   = "Bookmarks";

var Code	= "Code";

var Directory	= "Directory";

var Google	= "Google";

var Notebook	= "Notebook";

is it possible to bring this links' bar also to those google pages, which doesn't currently support it? such as Google Reader, etc...

@CyberCPA
You need to surround it in <code> tags or <pre> tags.

var Bookmarks = "<a href='http://www.google.com/bookmarks/'>Notebook</a>";

Great script!

You have to edit the script to your liking. There is an array called myGoogleLinks, and you can populate it with whatever links you want (and in what order). I'll update the description with more specific details.
