Hy Jack.
I'm sorry to inform you but I think script stopped working again? Can you confirm this please? Thanks.

I just tried this script as well. It's not working for me either... I'm using the latest greasemonkey with firefox 3.0.11

I'll look into it. Sometimes FB change their HTML structure causing the script to not work.

It's working for me in FF 3.0.11 on both PC and OS X.

Can you please try installing the latest script code and let me know if it's still not working?

Tried in FF 3.5 as well and works on Windows XP.

Not working for me, using FF 3.5 on XP. Made sure the URL that I was viewing is "

By the way, I noticed that this error is being generated in FF3.5's error console:

Error: idRegex.exec(pageUrl) is null
Source File: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/<snip>/Profiles/82hq1yf1.default/extensions/<snip>/components/greasemonkey.js
Line: 375

This error does not appear when I disable this script within greasemonkey and I reload the page.

Thanks, Jack!!!</snip></snip>

You have the latest script as of July 9 installed?

It's possible that someone has poked you but the profile link is not there. Seems like the error happens when trying to grab the user's ID from the profile link.

Yep. Have the latest script as of July 9 installed.

Jack, I think I found the problem. Now that FB is allowing for vanity URLs, some the profile for some individuals has URL of the form

http://www.facebook.com/username

rather than

http://www.facebook.com/profile?id=xxxxxx

If all of the individuals who have poked you do not have vanity URLs, then the pokeall script works just fine.

Could you figure out how to read the user's ID from the

[a href="/poke.php?id=xxxxx&pokeback=1" ...] tag?

You rock, Jack!

It's stopped working again; facebook made another change, I suppose? It'd be awesome if you could fix it again. :D

Seems broken again...it claims to have poked people back, but pokes remain on home page indefinitely.

Yep, broken again with the latest Facebook update.

Sorry guys, been away... I'll take a look when I get home today.

Just an update. It seems facebook changed the way they handle AJAX quite drastically. Doesn't seem like it'll be too hard to get the script working again though, I hope to make an update soon.

You're fine, I'll just be happy when it's fixed again. :)

Sorry it took so long. It's been pretty hectic this past month.

The script is updated. Let me know if you experience any problems.
