This script could be the mother of all anti-annoying-imagehost scripts if it weren't for a few annoying problems. The most severe is that it breaks the fantastic Image Zoom extension ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/139 ) on the images it "frees". Manual Zoom via Image Zoom is sadly impossible. That's kind of a dealbreaker :-( I also would prefer if the script would simply "free" the image like the "View Image" context menu entry, but I'm wondering if that's even possible (especially without breaking some image hosts). |

by location.href = foundImage.src;

Thanks for the quick reply Thomas. I already experimented with that earlier and it sadly has the additional problem that it doesn't work for quite a few imagehosts either, for example:

it doesn't work for quite a few imagehosts either Looks like imagebam.com transfers their images with the content-disposition HTTP header set to 'attachment;...', which simply tells the browser to save the file to disk immediately. Sorry, there's nothing I can do about this. almost all changes to element-styles the script makes are !important This is necessary to overwrite the web page's CSS definitions. No other way to do it. Maybe that's what breaks ImageZoom Nope, I just found out that it's a bug in ImageZoom: Images that have their width and/or height properties explicitly set to 'auto' are not being zoomed, even though 'auto' is the default value. You can verify this with the following simple test case <!DOCTYPE html>
