GreyWyvern, how do you install virtual keyboard in IE8? It works fine in Firefox with greasemonkey. I have no JScript experience. I tried to drag keyboard.user.js onto IE but I got a runtime error message on line 64, window is undefined.

The userscript version of the virtual keyboard is not designed to work in IE. The static version of the script does work in IE though, and you can visit my site using the links on the "About" tab to find it.

The static version is meant to be attached to a single page, or set of pages at a single website. Download the Javascript file, and CSS file and the keyboard icon and include them in your page as you would any other external resource. There are detailed installation instructions on the project page at my website.

Good luck!

Did you try installing IEPro? It might work with that.

I installed IE7Pro and could not get any User Scripts to work, even the ones which came with the program pre-installed. I'm not sure what I was doing wrong, but I'll try again later.

At the very least I would have to change all the events from addEventListener to attachEvent, to make them work in IE. To make the same script work in all of IE, FF and Opera, I would need to add a wrapper for both event attachment systems.

A part of me wants to refuse to do this in protest for IE8 not including the DOM event attachment methods ;)

I've made a bookmarklet version of VKI working on IE, too. See here:

Try installing Trixie, not the IEPro.
