Revised "GoogleX2" fixes both problems: 1) The search box now works; and 2) the OSX-style toolbar now appears when one is logged into Google. Userscripts link: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/16974

ok, i give up, apparently you cant paste code as text or in the code blocks :-(

good luck

 
dantullis User
ok, the code blocks did not work right...so change line 192 to this: thetables+='Images'; and add this line after line 207: thetables+='<form>
 <input /><input title="Google Search" />
<input /><input />
<font>  Advanced Search
  Preferences
  Language Tools</font>
</form>';
 
dantullis User

Also, modify line 192 to look like this


thetables+='Images';

I got it to work by adding a new line of the following just after line 207: thetables+='<form>
 <input /><input title="Google Search" />
<input /><input />
<font>  Advanced Search
  Preferences
  Language Tools</font>
</form>';

Everything works great for me except the google logo isn't appearing (have tried to clear my cache).
Everything else seems to work as it is intended.

Good job (or should i say "good port"?) with the userscript Bobo12 :)

Thank you for your help, Anuj. I have Platypus installed in Firefox. However, I am not aware of how to alter the source of the extension to make the changes that you recommended. Could you [or someone else] explain for a beginner how to accomplish this?

 
Anuj User

I've figured out a temporary fix to the issue of the text box disappearing when you are logged in. On line 223,
emplacement.replaceChild(thediv, document.getElementsByTagName('table')[1]);

just replace the 1 in the brackets with a 0. The text box should show up now.

 
Jason Robicheau User

Since 10/06/06 the search box has disappeared when this script is active. Please fix if possible.

This is great, but the more button doesn't work.

I concur with NTICompass it doesn't worked unless I am logged in. and I do have customise google installed... and I would also like this to work on the personal page.

 
NTICompass Scriptwright

Sorry, for the double post........
I do have CustomizeGoogle installed, too

This script doesn't work

 
David Celis User

Could you make this work on the personalized homepage (http://www.google.com/ig)?

 
abdiel User

Love it!!! It doesn't works sometimes. To make it work I have to refresh the page <google>.</google>

 
TRIFORCE89 User

Any progress on the next version?

 
Steve Darken User

Nice script but don't work with Firefox 1.5 beta 2 build branch + GM 0.6.2...

 
Michael Bierman Scriptwright

I also noticed that when I'm on the google desktop page, the icons don't grow and shrink.

 
Michael Bierman Scriptwright

Sorry, by "Google Desktop seems to work sometimes but not others." I mean the link and icon only appear sometimes. Usually Scholar appears instead.

 
Michael Bierman Scriptwright

I seem to be having several probelms with GoogleX:

1. It only works if I'm "logged on" to google.
2. It doesn't work on the Google Personalized Home page.
3. Google Desktop seems to work sometimes but not others. I haven't been able to track down why the change.

I have these problems with GM .35 (or whatever the old one was) and 0.5.3.

 
Adam Coffman User

I see that it is a known bug on your homepage, but my icons will never animate on the first try. Everytime I boot up firefox or hit home the icons are stationary (no labels or anything) However when I hit refresh they work fine until next time i return to google.com I have tried this will all other scripts disabled and it still does it. Do you have a general timeframe for another release?

 
Robert Brown User

Works great on my primary machine. I love it. But I cannot get it to work on my secondary machine. Greasemonkey scripts for other things work fine but Googlex does not on that machine. Still trying to figure it out.
