hey glenn i know my question has nothing to do with this script but i couldnt find your email anywhere

so i was wondering if you could create this script except for baseball it is a bench all players without a game script

http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/6716

that is the script link

and here is the actual script

// ==UserScript==
// @name Yahoo Fantasy NBA Bench All
// @namespace http://mattandchristy.net/benchall
// @description Provides a button to bench all players without a game
// @include http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/*...=*
// @include http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/*...
// ==/UserScript==
//
// Change log:
// 2006-12-10 Initial version of script; used Yahoo Fantasy NBA Game Log Link
// as a base to start developing

var doBench = function(event) {

var allElements;
var thisElement;
var playerLink = "http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/"
var gameLogLink;


allElements = document.evaluate(
"//*[contains(@class, 'player')]/..",
document,
null,
XPathResult.UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE,
null);

// burn the first two rows; they are headers, not players
for (var i = 2; i < allElements.snapshotLength; i++) {

thisElement = allElements.snapshotItem(i);

tds = thisElement.getElementsByTagName('td');
nameNode = tds[1];
if(nameNode) {
// td div a textnode value
name = nameNode.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;

// get the opponent TD's innerHTML; text node won't work because
// the ? for 'no opponent' gets translated to a character =/
opp = tds[3].innerHTML;

if(opp == '?') {

newPosSelectNode = tds[2].firstChild;
// select the 'BN' node for these guys (last option)
newPosSelectNode.selectedIndex = newPosSelectNode.length-1;

GM_log("Benching " + name);
}
}
}

// stop event propagation, if this was a click
if(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
}
}

/* gameLogLink = document.createElement('a'); */
/* gameLogLink.setAttribute("href",thisElement.href + "/gamelog") */
/* //gameLogLink.setAttribute("class","cellindent") */
/* gameLogLink.setAttribute("target","_blank") */
/* gameLogLink.setAttribute("title","game log link") */
/* gameLogLink.innerHTML = "" */
/* thisElement.parentNode.insertBefore(gameLogLink, thisElement.nextSibling.nextSibling); */

var BENCHBUTTON_ID = "bencherButton";
var BENCHBUTTON_TEXT = "[Bench players with no game]";

// create the bench button
var bencher = document.createElement("A");
bencher.addEventListener("click", doBench, true);
bencher.href = "#";
bencher.innerHTML = BENCHBUTTON_TEXT;
bencher.className = 'button';
/* bencher.style.backgroundColor = "#D8D9D5"; */
/* bencher.style.borderTopColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderBottomColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderLeftColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderRightColor = "#A8A8A8"; */
/* bencher.style.borderTopStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderBottomStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderLeftStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderRightStyle = "outset"; */
/* bencher.style.borderTopWidth = "1px"; */
/* bencher.style.borderBottomWidth = "1px"; */
/* bencher.style.borderLeftWidth = "1px"; */
/* bencher.style.borderRightWidth = "1px"; */
bencher.style.paddingTop = "2px";
bencher.style.paddingBottom = "5px";
bencher.style.paddingLeft = "5px";
bencher.style.paddingRight = "5px";
bencher.style.color = "#FFFFFF";
bencher.id = BENCHBUTTON_ID;

// attach the bench button right before the "submit changes" button
// at the bottom of the screen
var buttonBar = document.getElementById('buttonbar');
var inputs = buttonBar.getElementsByTagName('input');
var submitButton = inputs[inputs.length-1]
buttonBar.insertBefore(bencher, submitButton);

i tried to mess around with it a little bit but got no luck

please respond soon

i will post this on a couple other pages to ensure that you get the message

Another great script Glenn. One suggestion, make it usable in other sports. The location.href.match() just needs to be modified to support other sports, and then add the appropriate info to the @include area.

Thanks ! keep up the good work!

Brilliant. Thank you!
